      RPI-TV will likely have a skeleton crew in town. You can find them live streaming on Youtube, or on rpitv.org .

        For those coming from Maine for the weekend, after the game Friday night head downtown and enjoy the monthly Troy Night Out festivities. Local shops stay open late and plenty of good resturants, bars and such providing food, drinks and live music.
        Loyality means sticking with a thing in good and bad times. Not willing to do that, stay home, I got this.

          Don’t ask me why the Friday game is at 4 PM. Makes no sense to me...
          Perhaps the ghost of Ned Harkness whispered in somebody's ear, "Start the games at 4:00 and let the visiting team's goalie spend the first period dealing with the sunset through the windows at the west end of the Field House."

            They have shades there now.

                Do they really? Well, considering how seldom I make it to the Field House, you probably know better than I do.

                Whoever decided it was a good idea to put up the shades, I'm sure they weren't listening to Ned's ghost.

                  I think it was about 4yrs. ago they were installed. It was probably only noticeable late Sept., 1st week of Oct.

                    Isn't it dark by 4PM that time of year? Or just around the 21st?

                      I would have to check when it happens in Troy because it is latitude-dependent, but here in DC the earliest sunset is about on 12/6 and the latest sunset about on 1/6. The combination makes the shortest day on about 12/21. The dates get closer together when you go towards the pole.

                        December 29, 2017 sunset 4:29PM in Troy, NY and 4:02PM in Bangor, ME. For these two cities the difference is driven by equal parts longitude and latitude.

                          Depends on your frame of reference.

                          Here in central Pennsylvania, it definitely will not be dark by 4 PM. In Maine, where Walrus is, it very well might be dark by that time.

                          In Troy, my guess is that it won't be completely dark by 4 PM, though the light would probably fade completely sometime during the first period.

                          But with the shades, it won't make any difference inside the building, anyway.
