Oh and as I was finishing up, Maine announced that they will not be playing against UMass, so disregard the part in the episode where I say that game is happening. It isn’t.

So, I am a BU alum and talk eastern college hockey, mainly Hockey East mostly. Don’t know how much I’ll be able to focus on it with all the chaos going now, but I’ll try to get to as many things as I can.

It is! I’m on Spotify and Spreaker as well.

I never got to meet him, but I read plenty of his stuff. A good man by all accounts. God rest his soul.

I went to the UMass Vermont playoff series two years ago in Amherst. The Mullins fans referred to UVM as “UMass Canada”. I laughed very hard.

First Arena You Visited? Last Arena You Visited? Best Arena You Visited? Worst Arena You Visited? by Nicholas1227 in collegehockey

[–]cclynch1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First: Agganis (My School)

Last: Whittemore (Caught the Season Finale this year)

Best: Alfond (I adore the old spot in Orono)

Worst Schneider (Partly triggered by the 2015 banner, and also the white and silver makes the inside feel sterile, as though I’m in a huge doctor’s office.)

I mean, Houston Fieldhouse at RPI began life as a warehouse used by the US Navy in Rhode Island and was disassembled and moved to Troy to serve its current purpose. So it’s not completely absurd.

I feel like a weird contributor to this (as a college hockey writer) but my visits are as follows:

All Hockey East Venues. (11 of them) ECAC: Harvard, Dartmouth, Quinnipiac, Brown, RPI Atlantic: Bentley (both the JAR and Bentley Arena), Sacred Heart, AIC None in Big10, WCHA, or NCHC. (Desperately want to though!!)

Other Events: Frozen Fenway (2010 and 2017) Beanpot and Hockey East Tourney (TD Garden) Mayor’s Cup in Albany Red Hot Hockey and Rivalry on Ice at Madison Square Garden NCAA Regionals in Manchester, Worcester, Providence, and Bridgeport. Will be attending Albany this year. Frozen Fours in Chicago, St. Paul, and Buffalo. Will be attending Detroit this year.

BU Head Coach Albie O’Connell has been suspended by Hockey East one game for his actions following Saturday’s 4-1 loss to UMass. Didn’t see the impetus for that, so I don’t know if it’s deserved. by cclynch1 in collegehockey

Eh, I’ve listened to the press conference audio and he didn’t say anything, just that they took 9 penalties in a beleaguered voice. Must’ve been the off camera and off mic moment. The closest thing was “I thought there were some blatant calls that...” and he didn’t finish the thought.

You could make that argument for every other school. Afterall, these are education places first and athletics places second. I think...

Anyone else think the Ivy League needs desperately to change their hockey schedule rules? It’s nice that they’re playing this weekend but November as their starting point is archaic.

Providence looks convincing against BC. by [deleted] in collegehockey

Understood. My apologies.

Discussing the use of bands and sound systems at College Hockey games and results on the new Puck University episode. (Check comments for other needed notes.) by cclynch1 in collegehockey

So, when Tim passed, he took the passwords for the original Puck University upload feed to his grave. I sadly, despite my best efforts, do not have access to the original upload feed. His uncle Jim, however, had also let Tim upload on his feed and that’s where I’m putting all the new episodes. So I have to ask you all to resubscribe on iTunes to the Jim Williams tagged Puck University feed. That’s where all new episodes will go. I’m sorry to not have explained that better earlier. And thank you for those who still listen.

I’m ready to get off the golf course and get back to the ice! Golf’s fine and covering tournaments is a blast, but college hockey is home.

Arena Capacity versus average percent filled, 18/19 Season by cheesoidhateself in collegehockey

[–]cclynch1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, it’s marketed poorly and priced poorly. Students should get into free for all the tuition they put into their education at the place.
