    I was down a few weekends last year to see my daughter play and they have a hardcore group of fans that are at every game. They also have a special section set aside for their season ticket/booster club both in the stands and in the arena where they offer free coffee and cookies for the members. Last year was a tough season but apparently the year before they were getting 600-700 per game.

      Plattsburgh's schedule is out


      The annual Castleton game has dropped to an exhibition game. Other exhibition is against the Toronto Junior Aeros. Trinity and Amherst are added as non-conference opponents they didn't play last year. Amherst picked up a game against Elmira, too didn't they? I guess they're the SOS winner in the ECAC West demise...

      Uno's, the choice establishment of the team, is sponsoring their home tourney this year.

        So do exhibition games count for SOS?

            No. Neither do any of the stats.

              In terms of games with a probable positive impact on SOS, Plattsburgh replaced 2 games against Elmira and 1 against Utica with 2 against Oswego and 1 against Amherst. Add in replacing Castleton with Trinity, and I'd say the whole thing was a wash for the Cardinals. Perhaps even positive, since additional games against Buffalo State and Potsdam may be better than games against William Smith and Chatham.

              The conference split could have been a whole lot worse for Plattsburgh, IMO. I can't wait to see how it all shakes out!

                I may have missed it in the thread, but what are the rules regarding Exhibition games? Can you play more than 1? I see Augsburg has two scheduled, other teams one, some don't list any... How does it work?

                  This year, you are allowed two scrimmages/exhibition games (call them what you want). Nothing about the games (stats, results) count as far as the NCAA is concerned, and you don't have to limit them to Canadian opponents.

                    Anyone hear anything about Buffalo State or Salem State HC vacancies?

                      I don't think anyone really cares about either place any more than the athletic departments care at either place. Salem is apparently a part time job so it's hard for them to attract a good coach and the only thing I've heard about Buffalo is the last two coaches were not happy with the inequity between the way the women's and men's teams are treated and with the low salary. Looking at their website their AD is an old looking dude who is also the football coach so he's probably all about men's sports first. How many old fart football guys give a crap about women's sports? None that I've ever heard about.

                        You don't have to be an old fart FOOTBALL COACH to not give a crap, you could be a old fart former FOOTBALL PLAYER.

                                Aren't schools allowed an extra 3 games every 3 or 4 years?
