Maine at UMassA

Re: Maine at UMassA

I'd eagerly have given up the chance to have taunted poor Dave, fun though it was, to have had the Minutemen win that game.
 
Re: Maine at UMassA

Is anyone headed to the game? I will be making the trek..luckily I'm already near Boston so it's not to far. I predict Maine loses 4-1 and then 4-2 on Saturday in Durham. I hope my predictions are wrong.

Anyone know if the Mullins Center ever sells out? I don't feel like buying tickets on ticketmaster, but don't want to be turned away at the door.

UMass has sold out a grand total of once. Last week the game didn't sell out homecoming weekend against the defending national champions, and they have a fan base that travels real well. You'll be fine.

I agree that it won't sell out, but last week was 250 people short of a sellout and they were turning students away at the door. It is relatively easy to get seats at Mullins because of the capacity, not the lack of support (average conference attendence over 5300 each of the last 2 years).

I like Massachusetts to take this one, but the vibe amongst many of the fans seems to be pessimistic, given the team's inconsistancy in recent years. Doing **** like sandwiching a 5-1 win over BU with losses to MC and UML last year, or beating Notre Dame and North Dakota to win the Icebreaker Tournament two years ago, then going 0-6-1 in their next seven games.:rolleyes:

I agree with your idea but it was Notre Dame and Colorado College at the Lightning College Hockey Classic in Tampa, they played in the Icebreaker last season and beat the Sioux, but lost to Michigan State in game 1, leaving them 3rd.

For wings and beer selection - Hangar
General food and average beer selection - Rafters

I understand, I get the same way. That often happens when I'm at UMass game that's not going very well, sometimes at Merrimack or against a team like BC. I just try to put myself in a situation of winning seasons or big games, it helps me forget that Merrimack is winning 4-0!

Actually I would say Rafters has migrated to sub-average beer selection. :(

For really good beer try the Amherst Brewing Co downtown.

I wonder if Toot sticks with the same lineup tomorrow or if we see the season debuts of Boehm, Leary, and/or Czepiel.
