    Re: Northeast Regional - March 25-26: Minnesota, UMass-Lowell, Cornell and Notre Dame

    Is it still illegal to drink booze in New Hampshire while standing?
    You hardly know a day goes by in a cardboard cutout sundown...

      Only outside. Other than that tolerance is your limit.

        Never mind. It is still illegal, unless at the actual bar. Careful out there, people.

          Take the Queen City Ave exit. Exit and on ramps are not intuitive, involve a little surface street travel. Google map directions from the Comfort Inn to the SNHU-rena, crossing the Queen City Bridge, left on Elm. Pony up the private lot parking $$$ before you reach the arena. Reverse egress.

          Ssshhh.
          I will not be out cheered in my own building.

                Yes, this would be exit 4. Was my plan also to avoid any exit 5 issues.

                    If you got stuck the last time at the exit that at the bottom of the off ramp, you take a right on to Granite Street and straight up the hill, through a few lights, you find the garage on the left and arena up on the right, that's not this exit. That would be exit 5. Exit 4 is a bit more indirect off the highway but then you loop back across the river and then come down Elm Street, passing the ballpark on your left, Murphy's on your left, and arena just a bit further on your right. My hope is the exit 4 will be ok early on with most marathon folks being further north in downtown,

                    UML has added to their tournament page, noting "The SNHU Box Office advises that parking will be at a premium. Early arrival is strongly encouraged" along with the information they've had posted all week about parking and traffic possibly being an issue. I plan to be up there by 8:00am in any event to park, get breakfast, and then wait for pregame at 10am. I'm hopeful fans have been spreading the word about this. UML has been pushing it on Facebook and other places but my guess is there will still be many who just assume they can waltz right in but will be unfortunately delayed.

                    Sunday will be even more of a cluster given that Manchester stupidly has a St. Patrick's Day parade starting at noon, not realizing they're a week late. But one step at a time.

                      Lowell has their hands full with Cornell.
                      I will be AMAZED if ND beats Minny. If the Minnesota team I saw at Conte in November shows up, they will skate circles around ND's D.
                      I see Minnesota advancing to Chicago, regardless of opponent.

                        Yeah, in no way, shape, or form will this be easy. Lowell had to go to OT to beat Yale last year, had to tough it out against Minnesota State 2-1 in 2015, and needed OT to beat Miami in 2012. With the exception of wiping the floor with Wisconsin 6-1 in 2013, three of Lowell's most recent four NCAA opening round games haven't been cakewalks.

                          I wish I had your optimism. Not that I don't think Minnesota can't beat Notre Dame but I don't see them being able to "skate circles around" them.

                          I sure hope you're right, though.

                              Fake Hockey East shouldn't be an issue for Minnesota. Lowell dominated them and they looked like they were skating in quicksand. Looked like they gave up midway through the game. Kept Bjork in check the entire game, wasn't a factor at all.

                                That's too bad. Good luck at trials.
