    Don't know if it's changed (because I was there in 2000 and 2001), but being the state capitol the city seems to be a ghost town on the weekend. A lot of the restaurants and pubs weren't open, making it not a lot of fun for people visiting for the games.

      There's not a whole lot going on, but aside from holidays the restaurants and (much fewer now) bars are still open on weekends. The downtown areas quiet out after working hours and on weekends though since a lot of people that work in Albany are suburbanites from nearby towns within the county or in adjacent counties (like Saratoga) that don't stick around or can't stick around very long during the night. The city itself has just under 100000 folks but it's just not very vibrant. Lots of empty storefronts and decrepit buildings too.

        Tough to play these guys again after last Friday's shellacking and now they're in a position where you have a top goalie who can steal the game.

          UML was lucky to not get a penalty or penalty shot there- the puck was in the crease- and a UML player used his hand to get it out. Very much against the rules.

            1 up through 1... I thought we had the run of play but ND certainly had their chances.... fight continues in the second

              This building is horribly designed. From the location of the box office inside to the bathroom situation in the upper level (needing a code to get in)...

                                The building has very narrow concourses, making a real choke-point for crowds trying to circle the building on the inside. The problem, in part, is that the building needed to 'fit' a footprint bordered by four streets. They tried to cram a gallon into a pint pot. In other respects, it actually is a nice building.
