Looks like Quinnipiac figured out that if you punch SCSU in the face, they fold

Too simplistic to say that.
Wasn't a great weekend but they'll learn from it.

And now we're back to the lock down defense (14 shots allowed?) and Lindgrens 4th shutout.

With Geno assisting on the color commentary this weekend, the question becomes which Parrish is better on TV? Geno or Mark.

Discuss.

Geno seems less awkward.

I missed Geno on the broadcast? Argh! I used to talk to him a little back on campus. The guy was flat out funny without even putting in the slightest bit of effort. I can only imagine how his commentary went. I'll have to see if I can get a replay from NCHC.tv.

One of you should bid and get this awesome jersey.

Too expensive.

I didn't check and couldn't get updates, but how did we do against the cones?

Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

So... We're kinda good. Thoughts?

We're ok. I don't like the flat feet in the first 5-7 minutes of the game. Slacking (not really the right word, but too lazy to use a thesaurus) in the second and allowing the opponent to score.

This is a really good team. They have potential.

I'm pretty optimistic, Motzko's teams have generally gotten stronger as season's progress, unlike his predecessor. Attendance continues to disappoint. Last year's Saturday UMD game is the only game at the NHC I've been able to attend in recent seasons, but from that experience, and watching highlights, it seems like attendance is being relatively accurately reported, therefore the drop would be less precipitous than the numbers would indicate. Are they using tickets scanned, instead of tickets sold?
One big drop I do notice, though, is there was a few seasons where every North Dakota and Minnesota game sold 7,051 tickets and it sure seemed like every one of those people were actually there. Now they can't even sell 5,500.

We currently sit 4th in Pairwise but 2nd in KRACH. Screwed again!

Tickets are expensive and travel plus food/lodging prices people out.
Especially when there is a high quality broadcast in HD for every home game, so...why drive it?

Two things about the ticket sales that weren't mentioned prior:

First, with the updates to the NHC, there are fewer seats available for sale. I forget the exact difference, but they did reduce the quantity of seats.
Second, someone seems to have made the decision to not over-sell the SRO tickets anymore. When the arena packed in 7,000 or more people, you had fans standing two rows deep at the top of sections. It made for a bad view of the game and with increased ticket prices, people are going to demand better accommodations.
