Fair point. If I weren't going to be out in Vegas next week, I'd for sure make the trip to Hamden for a potential NEC Championship game... and of course I'd be there this weekend for the Dartmouth series.

Great Rally today for all four teams (MBB, WBB, MHOK & WHOK) in the cafeteria. Good Luck to all the Bobcats in Post-Season and congrats to our WHOK team for making QU WHOK history!

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
I was reading the article online about this weekend's series and this stuck out to me:
<i>Quinnipiac is 17-15-2 overall and 11-11-0 in ECAC Hockey play. Their 11 ECAC Hockey wins are the most in program history since their inaugural 2005-06 season. </i>
is this true? For some reason I find that very surprising.

Good luck this weekend guys.

Big weekend of playoff hockey at the Bank! Brian Sullivan has a really nice write-up on all the playoff action.
Dartmouth is not going to roll over and die so we'll need to set the tempo early. If we play with the same intensity as last weekend we'll be fine. Solid play at both ends of the ice and a strong showing in net will get it done!

Quinnipiac fans,
I may be heading over to the TD Bank Sports Center for tomorrow's game (depends on whether I can get out of work early). However, I just checked the website and, instead of the link to buy tickets, it says "Call 203-582-3905". Does this mean Friday's game is sold out?
I guess I'll call that number tomorrow to find out...

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
The game is not sold out and with students on break, i doubt theyll even come close. I think the better bet is to call the ticket office rather than buying online. But as far as getting tickets you should be fine.

Not sold out. You should definitely call -- they'll have tix at the will call window for you, and the website forces you into extra charges, which they don't hit you with over the phone.

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
One down, one to go!
While it wasn't their best effort, it was enough for the win. Clarke was solid in net and that kept us in the game. Two absolutely beautiful power play goals were the difference.
Lampe and JMB join the 100 point club on the same play! Congratulations to them both... it's a pretty elite club for the Bobcats.
I'm sure Dartmouth will regroup and come out harder tomorrow night. We'll need to be ready for it and take it to them.
Nice job tonight, guys!

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
Was at the game tonight and would say that Q did not play very well. They were outplayed by an obviously less talented team and if not for the power play goals would have been in overtime. The seniors stepped up when they had to, but the entire team needs to put together a game if they want to keep this to two games.
The Bank was less than half full this evening, a very poor showing. On an upbeat note, they let the band play alot.

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
The students started break today which was the main reason for the weak crowd.
Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
It just seems to me that there is not a huge following of local hockey fans for the Bobcats, everything is in place for some good crowds. I may be a sceptic, but I think the arena is just to much of a PITA to get to to become a draw for local hockey fans. Q's overhead there has to be enormous, there were more cops and security than Dartmouth fans tonight. $15 playoff tickets do not help either, and they would not sell me standing room because seats were available
I stood the whole game anyway.

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
I actually had fun and watched a close entertaining game, just pointing out some facts that I observed as a hockey fan. Sorry to mention negative things on a winning night for Q.
The only thing bad that happened to me tonight was that Backman is out for the season at Yale.

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 09-10: Part II
It's like this in every ECAC barn during the playoffs -- our local hockey followers are pretty strong. We had 3,000 non-students there for the Yale game, and with student crowds in the 600-900 variety (maybe less), we've been consistently near 3,000 fans per game.
The playoffs are tough, though. People don't know the games are going on, or they can't change their plans around to make it to a game on under a week's notice, etc... We get good crowds, but our non-student crowds aren't diehard yet. So, they come to games because they enjoy them, but won't change their plans around to make it.
That being said, I'll be there and loud tomorrow night! Let's wrap it up, 'Cats!
