If you go to the "My Account" section of the UW Ticketing site, there's a "Transfer" link. From there, it's basically as easy as picking the tickets to transfer and putting in the other person's email or phone number.

I'm actually surprised in this era of digital ticketing at how many tickets I still see in the windows, although it's certainly more "print at home" tickets these days. I know robertearle mentioned tickets being hung on the Kohl Center side, but I usually come in from the west, and they get hung up there too.

According to Duluth's ticket office my Frozen Four tickets are in the mail. I don't think they had a print at home option when I purchased them online but the did offer the choice of downloading them digitally to my phone. I like that I can still get real tickets. FF tickets will go inyo my collection of hockey memorabilia.
My men's hockey tickets are digital and transferable in the same manner as Wisconsin's.

BTN-Plus is really an excellent option. Yes the video and commentary can be low quality, but its way better than nothing, especially on the heels of whoever is doing UW's twitter feed like barely tweeting anything at all. They used to be way more active on twitter years ago.

I notice way less printed free tickets in the windows at the entrances these days, a victim of the digital tickets. I didn't think I'd like that, but after the pain in the butt downloading very convenient. I just need to figure out how to forward a digital ticket.

At my day job, we went from paper tickets to a plastic card (like a card one might use at a grocery store.....one card is credit card sized with the seat number on it and two others that are key chain sized with out the numbers on them). To the best of my knowledge there are not digital tickets. So....it is very hard to "give" tickets to someone else as they would need the physical card to get into the gate. As a result is appears that attendance has been reduced (I won't say severely, but it is quite noticeable).

Interesting that it seemed to be Wisconsin night on BTN+ on Saturday with wrestling followed by men's basketball, followed by men's hockey, followed by women's hockey. Well, some of the results were good!

Thanks.. My kids told me to screenshot the tickets and then text them the screenshots so that's what I did. Shockingly neither of them have Google wallet or something similar that I use to hold my tickets in.

Also shocking is the antiquated way you get your child's name on the jumbotron for her birthday. You have to fill out a form 5 days at advance and mail it and a check for 25 bucks to do it. No exceptions. This is really irritating. My wife's gonna call them tomorrow and see if she can't make it happen. It's a digital age for heavens sake.

I don't know how your digital tickets work but the barcode on ours has a blue line that floats left & right over the barcode which somehow authenticated the digital tickets as genuine. Like the holographic strip in a paper ticket to foil copying. A screenshot of our tickets won't work with our ticket scanners at the doors. If you want to transfer one of ours it has to be done electronically.

I think I found TimothyA on the interwebs...Or at the very least, what the future holds for him.

If I would only be so lucking to turn out like that guy. A guy can hope, eh?

So is it safe to say that Kronish is the starter going forward? I wasn't really impressed with those last 2 goals that she allowed against the rodents. I don't know if she was physically worn out? She did mention something about being tired on a game 2 on interview one time.

This is why you are one of my favorite posters. Of course since there are only 17 of us I don't know if that is saying much...

Kronish was better than the Tunneler goalie so there is that...

I'm guessing that he's the only one of the 17 that all of the other 16 could name; by far the most memorable.

His name is Charlie Berens. He's actually fairly well-known, at least in Wisconsin. Comedian, author, podcast host, "The Manitowoc Minute" on the internet. He actually gave the commencement address at Wisconsin's graduation in December

Of course Robert who knows just about anything knows about this guy. Smileyface.

I feel kinda dirty with ARM and FHF talking nice about me. Wink

I would love to hear Patricio's take on the last series.

I am concerned about Kronish and the back to backs. She's just not used to it. Maybe Gervais plays a game the next 2 weekends to keep her fresh for the big WCHA FF and the ncaa's. Or you play her all the games conditioning her for the back to backs. Gervais has been great expect for the oops against St. Cloud. One bad play does not define a season.
 
The "Five Things To Know..." article about this weekend lists the players being recognized for 'Senior Day', and sadly, the list is longer than I might have expected it to be.

Among those listed are three who I'm pretty sure would have eligibility for 2023-24, but are apparently choosing to not use: Cam Kronish, Grace Shirley, and (most surprising to me) Chayla Edwards.

We're reaching the far end of the "COVID year" era, and I know that in volleyball - a 'headcount' sport that doesn't allow partial scholarships - some schools have run into scholarship 'crunches', where there are just too many student-athletes you'd like to keep but can't manage scholarship money for, given numbers of incoming freshmen, etc., such that big-name players are moving through the portal to use their final year at a 'new' school. (Or maybe some of them - like Kronish - are saying 'five years of college is enough' :-)

But more 'goodbyes' this weekend than i thought there might be :-(

Some student athletes choose to go through the ceremony if they're not yet sure about returning. And in terms of coming back, it has to make sense in terms of their studies. If there isn't a course of study available that will profit her in the future, then she has to start thinking about what's next.

Or they end up in a grad program somewhere else if UW doesn't have a good fit.

With Murphy and Potter coming in, UW still has 6 D who can play every game plus a hopefully improved Toft, though I'm not sure who she can beat out.

I don't think GS was going to beat out Vasseur, Gorbatenko or Hall, so she'd be the 13th F.

I'm the most surprised by Kronish, though Gervais has earned half the starts this season, and with McNaughton coming in next year, maybe she passes them both.

I wouldn't be shocked if Kronsih and Edwards end up out east closer to home for grad studies.
 
Did the Tunnelers wake up a sleeping giant? The sinners are having no trouble scoring goals now. Up 3-0 so far in the first period.

Wow...Yuckeyes getting pounded. 4-0 now. Still in the first period.
