@icehockeystick Yep. Schafer complained about this when Cornell had to play Minnesota at Mariucci in the '05 regional (after the shift to "neutral" sites), but it was simply bc there were no other/limited bids, so Mariucci got it & Gophers were top seed, so.... too bad?

@fox_duke @chnews Not the only relevant point here. And yes it does. Like you said, for higher seeds. Have to balance access for fans w/what the teams earned. Home games do that. Never going to be one absolute right answer.

@chnews How is one team hosting another "easier access" for fans? Fans of just the higher seed? Because it in no way helps fans of teams 9-16.

NCAA hockey botching the regional situation again is in fucking sane. Give top seeds the regionals and pack those barns and make the atmosphere electric for the teams and broadcast . Stop being stubborn and stupid. Bad combo. Whoever is in charge needs to figure it out.

@Johnubacon Add a few grand if you're from out of town (most are) for flights, food, hotel, etc... It's no wonder regionals are ghost towns. Money aside, if nothing else, on some level doesn't the NCAA owe it to these kids to make this a worthwhile experience? I feel bad for these kids.

And thus thousands of empty seats in Albany. Yes, everyone knows the NCAA hockey sites suck, including where they put which teams, but what's still striking is how much it sucks, right down to empty arenas, and that they do nothing about it.

@brhoner @Johnubacon I live 15-20 min from the Albany arena and didn’t go. Why? They were $60/tix for the final plus another $20-30 to park. At $100, I have a better view from my couch.

@Kitkat_1216 Here is a list of a TON of High School rinks in Minnesota. history.vintagemnhockey.com/page/show/7882… The interface is a little funky, but once you click on any of the rinks/arenas, this button on the left will give you a gallery view, then you can pick the interior/rink views.

My son is Autistic, and he is obsessed with hockey arenas, not hockey, hockey arenas. He wants to visit one every weekend, then comes and draws them for hours at home. If anyone has pics of hockey rinks please share, and supply the name. It would make my 5 year old so happy!

@CanaduhJ @MikeGrinnell_ @spittinchiclets They play NCAA regionals at "neutral" sites. Often far from either college campus. This regional is in Albany, which is a nice little 9 hour drive from Ann Arbor. Even farther from UMD.

@AlexMicheletti WTF? Dumb. What's with all the Cassidy disrespect? All he did was bring a cup to Vegas. Boston did him dirty too. Don't get it.

@MikeGrinnell_ And if you watched the PC & QU game, you know sure as shit that ~4,892 of those 5,000 in Sioux Falls only showed up for the UND late game. (And of those few hundred that did, 75% were still NoDak fans.)

@MikeGrinnell_ @GameNotesBud These numbers get inflated and misconstrued because they count both sessions and present it as though that many were at each game.

@mdesisto543 @MikeGrinnell_ @spittinchiclets Also, at risk of stating the obvious... if you had 3,000 at Schneider Arena, that would *absolutely* be more actual people than what watched PC in South Dakota yesterday.

@mdesisto543 @MikeGrinnell_ @spittinchiclets Nah Watch QU/PC game? Hundreds of people. (UND fans prob 75% of those) Attendance reported at 5,114. Riiiight. (Tix sold, maybe. Not butts in seats.) But ok, say you DO get 5K for PC @ AMP. Not great for 15K seat arena. But pack Schneider Arena w/3,000 & it would be amazing.
