The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
This is one time I'm happy to be wrong. The atmosphere was terrific on Friday, and many more Utica fans than I expected to show up, showed up.
It's all good. I expect the place to be electric tomorrow. I'm actually excited to go (especially for an easy 3 PM game) even though I don't exactly...
That's hard to say, but I'm guessing that many UU fans will show up for the local flavor, alone. There were many Utica old-timers at the HC/Aurora game, somewhat to my surprise.
I, (perhaps stupidly), shelled out $240 for the weekend before Stout bounced Utica, but I'm glad I did it at this...
(OK, ignoring the uninvited trolls from here on out.)
Game One today was a good one. Much closer than the final score would seem to indicate. Aurora owned the 3rd, even as HC seemed to have a comfortable lead going into that frame. It became a nail-biter when AU drew within 1 with maybe 11...

Ironically, you "liked" a post from Shabby that was clearly directed at little boys such as yourself who employ the elementary-school-level word "dickbrain". Maybe YOU need to put the bottle down, you think?
"Dickbrain"? How old are you, in terms of emotional age? 7? You seem to be channeling the orange shitstain in that regard.
Go back to regurgitating box-scores in longhand as a "writer". You sucked at that, and you suck as a poster.
(No offense intended.)
And, FFS, mercenaries are, by definition, paid... The implication was clear. Anyone with the requisite "half a brain" could have picked up on that.
Guys transfer to Utica for the facilities and the fan-base, not for the non-existent money involved. Nobody "brought them in". They wanted to play...
Wishing them well. We always had a blast at Albany.
Pearl St. was very handy for in-between games eats and drinks, and Maine never lost there lol.
It's a tough venue to beat vis-a-vis the fan experience. If they can draw 5-6K, good for them.
Hello?
There is zero evidence that Utica pays a fucking dime! It's widely known as a college deeply in the red. (Where do you get your news, from Breitbart?)
Guys seem to like having an actual audience there, and playing in front of 2500 warm bodies in the fanciest arena in all of D-3. Nobody...
I'm thinking that the Albany regional is going to be an attendance disaster. There'll be next-to-none local interest in that one. Been to three regionals there, and the only factor that had the place even half-full was how well Maine traveled.
Worcester might be OK. likewise Loveland. but...
The Aud will be mostly empty, is my guess.
Aurora and Stout will send nobody to speak of, and the two local teams might draw 800, combined. I wouldn't expect that UU fans will show up in significant numbers, but I might be surprised.
We are among the idiot optimists who purchased weekend...
Ya think..?
Been to Sage many times, and Hamilton doesn't even draw there, despite the free admission. That place is more of a day-care joint than it is a hockey rink,
My guess is that -even in a perfect scenario- The Aud will be at least 75% empty. (The perfect scenario being a...
OK, do any Utica fans care to write a requiem regarding this season? (Trolls need not apply).
My take:
UU added a bunch of players this year, and some of them were quite good. Thing is, the team took too long to gel, IMO. Not sure that it ever really did.
Utica couldn't beat good teams. When...
