^ Carvy was only there a few minutes, and other than the jabs at the refs, he spoke well of UMass, and talked about the boost that we will get recruiting because of making the final game, winning the Hobey Baker, and having two All-Americans (Cale and Chafee).

Heading West in the AM. Have a room booked, but wondering what the word on the street is regarding tickets. Saw $72 from a ticket broker, but nothing near. UM sections. Face value seems to be the wishes of many sellers. Just wondering what people in Buffalo are hearing. Thanks!!

The hit is definitely questionable. Like most things when you slow it down to super slow mo and go frame by frame it looks like Trivigno is Claude Lemieux. It's just crazy that there wasn't even a review of the hit (there obviously should have been) and he's suspended. Seems more like a mea culpa to the Denver cry babies than a legit suspension.

My best advice would be to monitor the resellers tomorrow. In almost all instances ticket prices come down the closer you get to puck drop.

I think the only silver lining is would you want Trivigno suspended after the fact or have Umass down a man for 5 minutes at the end of the game and OT.

From what I saw here Thursday night, there is not much demand for tickets on the street. No way any scalper is going to get face value. Two of the teams are already gone.

I was going to ask maybe start a thread see if anyone's going to the watch party (closest to me is the Yarmouth) but I there's not much activity here on the board let alone people from Cape.

I have a 2 y/o whose mom is working all weekend, otherwise I'd be in Buffalo.

Anyway... Are those official watch parties really going to be local destinations UMass fans, or is that list just made for other/beaurocratic reasons?

^ Thanks.

For some reason I thought UMass was a 1 and UMD was a 2.

UMass looking better towards the end of the period but wow, UMD is good.

I feared having to play a NCHC team after watching some of their tournament on TV... We got a pretty good road to this game, was hoping to match up with PC. But yes, they are starting to settle down, we're still in it but we have to figure out a way to slow them down which will be difficult. Lets see what Carvel comes up with. No matter outcome, the season has been incredible.
