Maine Hockey 2013-2014 - Red Light District

[Drew S.]

I heard a rumor that MCs bus broke down and they had a hard time getting to Orono yesterday, wonder when they got here? or if they got here?

Not very good planning on their part if they left yesterday. Would think they would have gone up Wednesday night, the storm wasn't exactly a surprise.

Did anyone ever answer why Sully wasn't dressed last weekend??

Not yet...he didn't travel with the team is all that I heard.

How come there's such low attendance at the game including students?

I wonder why there has been no replay of the second goal that Maine scored on TV.

Well, Maine escaped.

Not sure what Shore was doing checking a guy from behind after a whistle with a minute left. Didn't get a close look at it as it was behind the play, but why risk a penalty? Then O'Connor's hand pass in the offensive zone to allow MC an offensive faceoff with extra attacker . . . I wouldn't say Maine has this final-minute thing down. But they got a few clears, so progress

2 points down, 2 to go.

Not a pretty win, but 2 points is 2 points at this point.

$50 tickets, look at how many people are in the less expensive seats. Notice I didn't use the word cheap.

$50 tickets to see Maine play Merrimack = complete joke.

I would expect the new AD to examine the pricing structure of hockey tickets in the off-season.

1. Black Bears won. Not impressively. Take the 2 points. Move on.
2. They played down to their competition for pretty much the first time at home this year. Red ain't gonna tolerate that very long.
3. Tomorrow night will be tell-tale. They need to dismantle a clearly inferior Merrimack team. Northeastern and Providence are going to be way more difficult, especially fighting for the last few regular season points.

UMass and Notre Dame could really do Maine a big favor tomorrow night.

$50 to see Maine play the 84 Oilers would be a joke. I gave up my tickets last year which were in a $50 seat section and although they were great seats it's a joke they charge $50. That being said I feel good about the program going forward and will probably get season tickets next year, but they won't be in the $50 sections.

That's just nuts.

Look for UMass to do UMaine (and UNH) a huge favor tomorrow against Northeastern.
