UNH at Northeastern 10.27.2012

Indeed they did.

I also remember Charlie Holt looking up and giving me a somewhat disappoving look after I'd leaned over its railing, looked directly down at the ice, and given a few loud "pointers" to a Huskie player who'd cheap shotted one of our own.

DeSmith coming up huge as NU almost finds twine on a couple of bids with under a minute to go. Yikes.

End of period 2. Scoreless.

Shoving after the horn... probably going to have some matching penalties...

The ability to do this and be heard is what I miss most about the old Garden and it's similar balcony, think it was 10 rows or so back from the ice. Good luck being heard from the balcony at TD Garden... They missed a trick imho designing the "new Garden" the way they did.

Ain't that the truth. Sorry to show my age. But burned in my mind forever is leaning over that thing and looking straight down to see (low scoring defensive, back checking, hard working forward) Bobby Gould beat Gaudet to win our one and only ECAC title. All New Hampshire: UNH 3 Dartmouth 2.

Almost as good: #17 at 17:17 of the 3rd period. You can look it up. ;)

And by the way, the loudest I have EVER heard a rink's crowd -- and this includes when I was at the USA-USSR game (see photo here) -- was in the old Garden. UNH 10 Cornell 9 in double OT, ECAC semis. All of Durham and half of Ithaca were there.

Every crowd after that is postscript.

17:24 to go, a few big saves by DeSmith early in the 3rd here.
 
Re: UNH at Northeastern 10.27.2012

Hey everyone. Was at last nights game and tonight is the complete opposite. Just got on and am seeing a defensive battle.

That was a before my time, but for me the Merrimack-UNH HE Quarterfinal in 2002. UNH was down 3-0 in the second period, then scored three goals in a little over 2 minutes including two in 30 seconds. The crowd was in a state of sheer chaos after Haydar's tying goal, haven't heard it as loud in there since.
An early 2000's Whiteout game or two, the infamous Ayers getting his hand skated over game up at the Alfond [2002], and the Cornell fans at the 2002 semi-final in Buffalo would round out my list.

NU kills the UNH PP.

Under 7:00 to play.

NU with a bid that barely misses wide.
