If the amount of available seats is anything close to what it is now by game day I'm going to be hugely disappointed. We've been waiting for this series for four years and it's a top 10 matchup that lynah hasn't hosted any thing like in a long time. As a student I have seen literally no advertising for the game. We have no reason not to sell this weekend out.

I don't know if the super-casual student fans--the ones who don't pay attention to the college hockey world beyond when they get to throw fish at Harvard--are really aware that North Dakota is a really good team most years, so the weekend is bound to be exciting.  So it's up to other, more knowledgeable student fans to get the word out.
Is next year here yet?

Doesn't the sun pump this stuff up?  Or do they wait until Thursday to start the weekend stories...?

Thursday's when they run their porn stories so I'm not sure if they have room for sports

On Thursday?

For a number of years now the print edition is only 2/3 days a week.

Quote from: upprdeckFor most games how many people do we think come it from out of town vs just being locals?


I think its mostly because its still warm outside and people dont know hockey has started around here.

its not like the school promotes it in any way.

We aren't able to travel meaningfully yet due to my knee replacement surgery last month, but be assured two asses will be in our two seats nonetheless. Just not ours.

I hope the demo has changed since we were there.

Friday night's North Dakota game will be televised on SNY as well as on ESPN Plus.

Quote from: upprdeckThey travel to big events. Do they want to travel to upstate NY though?
looking at orbitz, flying in thursday and leaving sunday, it's $1500 from Fargo to Ithaca RT, obviously not direct and with significant layovers. Flying to Syracuse is still around $1000 and you have to drive almost 50 miles. I don't know how popular a trip like that is.

If UND came to MSG I think people make a weekend out of it if they aren't scared of midtown when they can't open carry.

I have to imagine that 50 miles for anyone from a Dakota is like a run to the corner store.

From our visits to Grand Forks, there's a number who think the entire state of NY is all skyscrapers, traffic, subways, and depending on their news network of choice, DANGER DRUGS AND CRIME EVERYWHERE FOREVER.

NoDak travels VERY well.  It's going to be a great road crowd and I look forward to it.  Everyone should see Lynah.
