speedy Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Well, Union did well in the first game in Bridgeport (BTW, the missed goal for Michigan State was a bogus call) and if you are a Miami of Ohio fan, you may want to find a place to hide as UMass Lowell is beating them down.Ugh, despite being a product of the UMass system, I still can't stand Lowell. I understand I'm in a college hockey hotbed, but it's got a rather nice following around here. NESN carries Hockey East every weekend so you get a good feel for the teams. Not too familiar with anyone west of Amherst they get very little coverage here. I guess the way you make a college hockey popularity argument depends strongly on location.

crashcarson15 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I'm down with seeing Lowell or Union in Tampa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cola Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 How much are tickets to this? I don't have a lot of interest in hockey (although I have attended Bolts games), but does the sport usually follow others- meaning, the college games are usually better than the professional ones? Thinking about attending since I'm only a couple minutes from TBT Forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashcarson15 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Around $200 for both sessions. I think they'll sell tickets the day of too for a single session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Cornell won? Oh well, any time Michigan loses in any sport it's worth being happy about. As for today, the Northeast and West regionals begin while in the East Regional final, it's Union against UMass-Lowell (I personally want UML to win for no other reason then the fact that I like their logo) and in the Midwest it's Ferris State against Cornell.

illwauk Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 ...there's a huge college hockey following in Wisconsin (every Frozen Four match thats ever been played at the Bradley Center has sold out) that the WCHA doesn't want to miss out on.No offense, but every Frozen Four since '00 (excluding Detroit two years ago, but come on, the got 35,000 per game) has been a sell out (including "hockey Mad" Columbus, OH, St. Louis, and Washington, DC). You'd do better touting UW's nation leading attendance than touting local Frozen Four attendance.I wasn't aware that it had become the norm for the Frozen Four to sell out, but I remember it being a pretty big deal the first two times the BC hosted in '93 and '97... or at least big enough for SI to do a write-up about it.

Seadragon76 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The Frozen Four is set... Semifinal #1 has Union facing Ferris State in a battle of newcomers while Semifinal #2 is a battle of the old guard as Minnesota faces Boston College.It seems so poetic that each of the four big conferences (ECAC, Hockey East, WCHA and CCHA) has one of their schools in the Frozen Four  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I'm hoping for a Union or Ferris State national title because Minnesota and Boston College are two of my least favorite NCAA hockey programs. Really though, I don't care that much because Miami and Michigan were already eliminated and that's really all that counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox44 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I don't think people outside of college care about college hockey. It's kind of not good.I watch more college hockey than NHL. I may be biased but it's just fine to me watching the best conference in the nation, the wcha.That's not how you spell Hockey East.Of course, that would've been better had I not been posting this after Maine and BU were eliminated. Speaking of teams I support losing in the first round, I have no dog in this race anymore. I can't support BC because BC. So...Minnesota? Union? IDFK.On the bright side, that was UMaine's first tourney appearance since '07. I can't believe they let the drought go through four seasons.
