An unsaid point from last night - there was a Dropkick Murphys concert at Tsongas yesterday at noon and the ice conditions last night were HORRIBLE. That and it likely prevented both teams from getting a morning/afternoon skate in at the rink. Combined, I think that caused a lot of the helter-skelter play from both teams all night. By the time the third period rolled around the ice was clearly in brutal shape, the puck was bouncing around like a ping pong ball, there appeared to be dead spots that guys were tripping on. It was awful, and the league should've strongly considered making this a Thursday/Friday/Sunday series.

The Dropkick Murphys were at the House of Blues last night. They moved those shows from Lowell to Boston awhile ago.

Odd, there were multiple ads I saw online on Friday saying the concert was on Saturday at Tsongas.

Where are the visiting team sections? Also, not sure if the website it "accurate" but it looks as though there are a million seats "available" still.

114-115. Careful with the last row in 115, many obstructed view seats there from the luxury boxes jutting out in front.

Many BU fans were in these sections and maybe 113 as well. Get something close and I bet you'll be able to migrate somewhat to be in a more comforatable spot and/or closer to your fellow Terriers.

Thanks. Already got it. Box score said 3130 last night...this is about what it has been - at UMass Friday it was 3076 and 3989 last night. I'm expecting maybe upwards of 4000 tonight...so there should be some "room" for maneuvering. :)

You'll be totally fine. The majority of people were on/between the bluelines. I'm not as optimistic as you for 4000 but if the students are back early enough, hoping that fills in nicely.

So puck drops at 11p....

Mookie not so sure he will be up for that... still a late end and this could be a quintuple ot extravaganza

I've been researching attendance figures back to the 2001-02 season and there have been 29 game threes in Hockey East over that time. Of those, 18 game threes had the lowest attendance of the three, 6 had the highest, 4 were in the middle and 1 had the same for all three. Furthermore, Lowell has hosted 5 game threes with the first 2 being in the middle and the last three being the lowest, so I would put the over under at 3000 for today's game.

I don’t even see Farabee on the bench. Any updates if anyone is listening?EDIT: I see him now. Just got hammered into the boards again. Perhaps just sit him the rest of the game?
