      It was a bit better than concession type food from what I saw but I didn't go in. It was cold on that particular game so I went to the Leary Room instead. Outside is a much better option for food choices than the Leary Room of course and they do have space heaters which wont be a problem for a few weeks anyway.

        It is usually like Gluten Free Mac and Cheese, some sort of Pasta with sauce, maybe a piece of chicken, and a couple of deserts all in a buffet. You have to pay for all drinks though.

Just released was the AHC coaches preseason poll and AIC was in the top half at 5. Better be ready for if your players have the same attitude as you they may be in for a surprise much like eventual NCAA tournament team Penn State was surprised by them last October.
          I saw AIC three times last year and they are much better than the last time they came to Providence.

            Looks like Swedish defenseman Carl Ehrnberg didn't make it to the team as he is NOT listed on the roster. Another defenseman that Leaman has recruited that didn't last at PC.

                  Played 51 games in the USHL last year so not like this was his first time away from home.

                    No it wasn't but he was away from home for more than enough time to figure out that being over here wasn't doing it for him. I'm sure he had enough time to miss family and friends and weigh the benefits of playing overseas as opposed to playing closer to home. Home won. Good for him.

Hopefully the players realize that there is no way they should lose this game and they should be disgusted with themselves if the #5 team in the country loses out of the gate to a middle of the pack AHC team.

                          How about RIT beating the friars at Schneider last December.

                            Could the Friars lose on Sat? Sure. Would it go down as one of the worse losses in the program's history? ABSOLUTELY! The Friars are ranked in the top 5 in the country to begin the season, projected to finish in the top three of HE and AIC isn't ranked in the top 5 of their conference. Also consider that it is opening night at home and I would be shocked if the Friars don't beat AIC on Saturday night. Just saying...

                              PC beat RIT the night before 8-3 and lost the next night 4-0. Only one of three home losses last season.

                                Didn't the 2013-2014 team lost to Atlantic Hockey League member UConn at home...another bad loss! There are plenty of bad losses under Nate and AIC is much improved since the last time they came to Providence. Do I expect AIC to win? No, but they are a better squad now.
