    Oh yes, and the burning trash cans give it 'ambiance'.

      There is indeed a second sheet at North Dakota, 200x100, with the "primary" sheet in the arena at 200x85.

        I'm not sure we should hold BU accountable for the BC alums that wander down Commonwealth Ave.

            We're the ones throwing change into the BU alums' cups.

I think that there is a second surface at the Ralph for North Dakota, but I've never actually seen it, so I could be wrong.
              The second rink at the Herb Brooks Hockey Center is also 200x100. There is talk of changing that, but may be cost prohibitive. Both men's and women's teams can practice at the Municipal Arena across town. That has two sheets, both 200x185. (In the "old days", then men's coach Craig Dahl liked the second sheet at the Brooks Center because "it looked smaller." True story . . .)

                You don't have to speak in euphemisms.

                  BC has Conte on campus and a municipal rink about a half mile away that it uses when squeeky ball is using Conte.

                      I went to a Catholic school, we're taught to be charitable to those who are less fortunate.

                        RMU has 3 pads in the winter and 2 in the spring/summer.

                          RIT will have 2 in the fall when the Polisseni Center opens (4200 seats +). The Ritter will remain open as well (2100 "seats"). Both ice arenas "only" with occasional special events.
