UMaine '26-'27: The Bridge On the River Stillwater

Except that you don’t know how many comps are going to be given back until 3-4 days before a given game. Same goes with student tickets, extras go on sale the day before if the kids don’t claim them all.

I see they penalize students who get tickets and don't go. Comps given back should be the same. You don't get anymore.

Any news on how Romaine is doing? That could have been much worse.

Barr said in the postgame presser that he was walking and talking in the dressing room, so that's a good sign

Interesting interaction at the end of the game with the handshakes. Pecknold said something to one of the linesman and he linesman appeared to say F off and was really pissed. I get getting on the refs when they are bad but he was crying constantly all weekend.

I honestly feel like Q expected to sweep this series before Friday's game was even played. Q is talented and will be in the conversation until the end of the season.....but they are not world beaters. One major injury to the wrong goaltender and they become a lot more ordinary.

The Quinnipiac is one of the best series on the schedule. It should be sold out. Kids going on break is a known ahead of time so they should sell those seats sooner, release less to the kids if there is a break. Every year the student breaks are not well attended in balcony. Also, there really is no excuse for not having a full barn with the demand there. Sell them at discount if they don’t get claimed. People in seats also leads to lot of revenue in concourse. I just think the ticket office at Maine is well behind the times and still do ok because the demand is there. But they should be trying to maximize the amount of fans in the building. Empty seats for a marque match up is not doing a good job.

Unless things have changed, comp tickets are in A and B, not the top reaches of the upper bowl. And they aren't as plentiful as the number of tickets that became available Thursday.

I see they penalize students who get tickets and don't go. Comps given back should be the same. You don't get anymore.

Students who request tickets can change their minds until 24 hours prior to the game. If they have a ticket reserved and do not show up they receive a strike. Three strikes and they are done for the season.

They are not going to implement this for comps. Those tickets generally go to parents, former players and the like. Other than relatives, a person usually only uses them once or twice a season anyway. If memory serves, I requested and was given comps to three games over the course of five seasons. It isn't like the same people are using them several times per season. And to be honest, I would question how many comps go unused.

This team is boring....Ben Barr teams are boring.

You thought 2023 and 2024 were boring years?

This team is anything but boring. I was at the games this weekend so just catching up on the thread and comments like this are just incredible from Maine fans. On Saturday for example, the 2nd period it was about as up and down high end college hockey as you will find.

How about we don’t make big declarations 3 games into the season. This team has flaws, but hard working/high motor teams will generate plenty of opportunities and should be entertaining.

Newsflash - they’re not going undefeated this year. They outplayed top 5ish team this weekend and deserved better than a split. Crazy to be negative.

That is all Peckerhead does, every single game. It never stops. He would never last in Hockey East

I take it back.....I was in a bad mood.

Ben Barr teams are bit offensively challenged though. They played very hard all weekend....that was awesome.
