The Badgers were loudly booed as they stepped on the ice after last nights goonism. lets blow their doors off!
LIVE FROM PEGULA... Friday vs. Wisconsin
- Thread starter PA_JOE
- Start date
Well we owned the first 10 minutes, hit a post, didn’t convert and then gave one up on a grinder in our end. bad Badgers 1 PSU 0
Outplayed them, outshot them 14-7, had the only power play and we are still down 1-0 at the end of the first period.
Brandon Biro ties it 1-1 off the beautiful feed from Pavlachev! goal was at 5 minutes of the second period, we’re approaching the 10 minute mark now.
Alex Limoges gets the crazy bounce out of the corner which the goalie mis plays and Alex buries into the open net. 2-1 PSU 6 minutes left in the second period!
Complete defensive lapse and the resulting turnover winds up behind Payton. 2-2 now. Really bad brain fart by 3 of our players to let that happen. End of Period.

Defensive lapses seem to be in our DNA. It isn’t new and it keeps happening.
I hate us.
halfway through the third period, still 2-2. Not a lot of fluid play in the third, to a lot of play stoppages.
Sam Sternschein goes end to end and buries one from the face off circle!!! 3-2 PSU now with 8 minutes left to go.
Sucese empty net 4-2, good night Wisconsin!
game over 4-2 win and sweep is complete!

NATE SUCESE with the empty netter from the other end of the ice. 4-2 PSU under a minute to go.
Sucese’s 54th career goal. Ties Andrew Sturtz for the all time career goal leader. Congrats Nate.
Only allowing three goals in the two games is outstanding. Wisconsin has some really good players. Overall, this was the best defensive effort in back to back games that the team has had in a long time. Excellent goaltending by Jones too. Give credit to the Wiscy goalie for tonight's performance. He also played well.

Wisconsin was a preseason pick for 3rd in conference, behind PSU and ND. Considering that PSU didn't get a regular-season sweep of the Badgers last year (but did get them in the conference tourney), it is great to see PSU win the second game - hopefully it bodes well for the rest of conference play!
Huge win, Jones played very well
No, he was suspended by the Big Ten for tonight's game.
In other B1G action, OSU over Michigan
3-2, Minnesota ties Notre Dame (Minnesota with the goal in the 3-on-3 2nd OT, coming out of the night with 2 of the 3 points... had to tie the game twice in the 3rd), and MSU squandered an early lead to Cornell, losing 2-3.

We have MSU at home next. I don’t have a feel for how good they are yet. But anything short of a sweep at home will be disappointing.
Unfortunately I think a large amount of the season tix are owned by businesses or those more than 30 minutes away. Hockey doesn’t get decent crowds it seems until football season is over.
Crowds have been very disappointing this season, even for the Friday night before the Michigan football game.
I hear there is a long waiting list but even those trying to sell tix for low prices are having a tough time on secondary market. So who knows.
Also, 6:00 on a Friday night is a bad start time. Half the crowd is late for Friday night 7:00 games. One positive - the Roar Zone was full and really into the game. They make the difference in the atmosphere. The Roar Zone was extra loud last night, even after the game through the singing of the alma mater and the celebration with the team. It's worth staying around afterward to see.

Didn't they make it a lot harder for people to get tickets that just decide to come down the day or before of the game? Either outside the arena, or printing them off on line? Seemed I got an email about that a few months ago that insinuated that if I bought season tickets, and wasn't able to drive 4 or 5 hours on a Tursday or Wednesday night, I wouldn't be able to give them to someone else.
It was a little confusing, and I had other things on my mind, so I just decided to forget about it. Sounds like others had the same (non) response.
Note to marketing. Keep things simple, and people will come.
It is a pretty simple process. Takes a whole 15 seconds, if that, to transfer tix to someone. Based on number of tix on secondary market, doesn’t seem sellers are having a difficult time on transferring or putting up for sale.
Yep, time start sucked as did having a game Thursday night. Hate times are so often dictated by TV or opposite of Penn State football. Let’s be realistic. If PSU/OSU football game is at noon, the hockey game will be later in the night and crowd will likely be weak because people either got too liquors up to attend or if Penn State does lose some people won’t feel like attending.
Yep, the football effect is real. The Pegula was almost empty already by the end of the second Sacred Heart game - 4:30 start on Sat., Oct. 12. The final score was 5-4. They started clearing out at the end of the 2nd period. By the middle of the 3rd I felt bad for the team. Football fans had to get home and make preparations for the start of the Iowa game.

They do sell out all their games. What they don't do is put bodies in the sold seats. PAID attendance so far for the season is 103% of capacity.
