Yeah, finals are this week. I'm staying for the Friday night game but not for Saturday. The student section will def. be pretty small but hopefully people will still come out since we're playing a team that we don't see every year. I voted over 2467.

How many years until the "In the Box" panel comes off the official webpage?

I voted over...I know most people won't be around and even though I'm supposed to be gone I'm staying for both games (still haven't missed one in three years and something like leaving isn't going to mess that up). :)

I can't help but notice that all three of the guys that posted responses to this thread say they choose the OVER, but as of this time the UNDER leads the poll 8-7. That close a split tells me that I pretty well nailed the number

I chose the under, but after doing a little bit of comparisons, I don't know that the total will be that low.

I also find it difficult to believe that last weekend's game was just a little over 3,000. There couldn't have been room for 2,000 more in the seats.

Friday night was 1294 (I think it was a generous counting)
Saturday's target is 1173

It looked like there were about 5 to 600 people there.... But I didn't get there until the end of the 2nd, so maybe half of them left early! :-D
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

I would really like to hear from Greg Christopher and know how the whole team goes to him this past summer and explains that they can't play for Scott Paulich, and know one hears about this!! Scott gets a phone call in Florida while he is on the annuall coaches confrence and is demanded by Christopher to get back to B.G. immediately! Paulich figures out a way to shove this whole incident under the rug and sends the entire team home for the summer. This was a terrible move for the program since these kids needed the ice time to practice together like all major teams. However, Paulich figured this was a way to keep this incident quiet and allow him to remain the coach. If he had any morals he would have resigned right then. How could you coach a group that despise you? This is not good chemistry which is a major factor with any good team or organization. Obviously Paulich doesn't understand this as well as many other things. B.G.'s chemistry left with Todd Reirden-ask the players they will be more than glad to pass this on! Plenty more to come keep looking by the way dont erase this ---I will put it on again if you do.

Paulich needs to go!

Post by BG Knows Best »

Continuing! Paulich doesn't know the first thing about chemistry, on or off ice -it could check him into the boards and he wouldn't know it. He has mind f@#& these kids so bad they don't know what to do half the time. Why do you think Cepis left and 2-3 more are on the fence? Paulich doesn't care about these kids or their career. Like Eno, Paulich forced him to practice on a bad ankle and now this kid could be done for most of the season. If Scott truly cared about these kids he would not have done that. Another example- Maxwell a true coach (Reirden) would never have let his off issues get out of control to the point that he was unable to play. But, when the head coach spends more tiime looking at espn.com than he does preparing for practices or a game(no game plan or practice schedule) what would one expect? Obviously last weekends NFL games were more important than a kids career. Oh yea and he gets paid big money to coach hockey. We need a coach that is prepared, organized and can budget so the program is not broke by December-maybe plan scouting trips in advance? Look at the flight schedules 1-2 days notice! This is rediculous and budget draining. The whole program from B.G's youth program through high school and Falcon hockey is suffering! As most things from the top it trickles down. The BG youth program can't afford the ice because of Paulich's inability to budget the programs money. I wish we could elaborate better but I think you are getting the point. In the past B.G's hockey programs from youth, high school through college was admired by all, but today it is looked at as a joke. We need a coach that is not in it for the social status, but for the pasion for the program. We could easily get money from numerous NHL,AHL players but they cannot stand Paulich or his coaching methods. I gaurantee that they will when he is gone and a respectable coach is hired that knows how to coach on and off ice!
