ECAC Playoffs

[quote Kyle Rose]Can I bitch about having to pay B2 instead of having video for the quarterfinals included in Redcast?

Kyle, you forgot the pictures we can get for free ::cuss::.

I guess my suggestion to the ECACHL went over like a lead balloon.

I would have paid $40-45 dollars for a playoff package that included access to ALL playoff games, both live and on-demand. However, it isn't worth it to pay up to $44 just to see Cornell play this weekend and next weekends finals.

Oh well, here's hoping there aren't any issues with REDCAST audio tonight.

Our game against Princeton is at 7:30, not 7.

For those of you with the NHL Network, it looks like the semifinal games will both be televised live.  Not sure about Saturday's games though....

Okay, I changed it. Thank you.

Buying tickets at the door shouldn't be a problem, correct?  I know it hasn't been in the past.

Looks like a great tourney.  Are any of the other teams likely to draw a good crowd to Albany?

All 4 teams enter with 20+ wins and 10+ games > .500.  I strongly suspect that's a first.

From past experience, Cornell is the only team that travels in >200 numbers.  Should be fine getting tickets at the door.  Hopefully this will change, because it definitely is a lot more fun having other fans to cheer against.

SLU can bring a good crowd -  at least they do for their regular season RPI game.  Who knows about Yale - they've never been here.:-D

anyone know what section at albany the cornell ticket office has tickets for?

[quote A-ron]anyone know what section at albany the cornell ticket office has tickets for?[/quote]

Sections 117 and 118. There is a sign that says that tickets purchased for both days will get seats in 118 and tickets being purchased for just one of the sessions will be in 117 but I have no idea if that policy is being put into practice.

FWIW, the tickets say 7:00 for the late game. Having said that, I don't think the late game has ever started on time.

[/quote]SLU(t) used to draw very well in Lake Placid, though granted that was a very short trip for them.  Anyone know how the crowd was in 2007?  I can't seem to find any attendance numbers, but that might be some indication of what to expect out of them.

SLU used to travel well to Boston, too, so it wasn't just the short trip.  Their fan base, particularly their townies, are extremely dedicated.  There aren't that many of them to begin with, but those there are go on the road.
