Lynah Expansion Moves Forward

[Q]think this will have an impact on the quality of the seats in (if i'm thinking of this correclty) sections B and D.[/Q]

This is a good point. I had seats in the third row behind the Cornell bench at Yale, and the players definitely interferes with your view. Especially at the beginning of the first when they're all standing up cause they aren't tired yet

 That is one of the crappier rinks I've ever been in personally.  The layout of seats, and the slope of the seating made for poor viewing, much like Meehan.  The scoreboard lacked the penalties, which were instead displayed at the end of the ice.  It reminded me to really appreciate the layout of Appleton, Thompson.. and oh yeah Lynah.  Sucks for the teams that end up at the regionals there......

On the other hand, beer is good for a throat after you've been chanting, screaming and yelling for 2 periods.  Live and let die I suppose. [/q]

And where are the penalities displayed at Lynah? I don't think penalites displaying at the ends of the rink (not end) is a disadvantage for the players as much as an inconvenience for the fans. Still, it bugged me too. That scoreboard cost 1.5 million.

I liked the seats (though cupholders would be nice), had great sightlines from where I was sitting, thought the restrooms were good. Again, anyone who remembers the old War Memorial has got to think BCA is a gem. Having gone to the last 2 regionals Cornell was in BCA wins hands-down over the DD in Providence. Marriucci is, well, pretty amazing.
