GO HOCKEY!!
DROP THE PUCK BABY!!!!!

My first gut reaction to the bench being moved is "Uh-oh."

Putting the student section closer to the opposing bench might very well cause some problems. I'm actually not too sure what led to this decision.

switching benchs means BG shoots into the horse-shoe end twice.

You gotta love the opposition being in the student section, I know I do and I don't even sit there usally.

Yeah that was something I talked to the coaches about last spring. He asked me if that was something the students would like. It will give the student section 2 periods to get on the opposing goalie and make some noise right by their bench. This season should be a fun one.

Crazyfan, were you still planning on having another meeting the the coaches this fall? And am I still invited to come if you do?

I remember before the Buddy Powers era, BG was in the South End for two periods. The students were in sections A and H more than they were in section E. The switch was made so the students would be more apt to haggle the opponent's goalie. The result was more students moving to section E.

The switch was made by York, after the endzone seats were put in. The thinking at the time, was that there would be a whole endzone of people to make it hard on the opposing goalie. You are right, the majority of the vocal students were in A & H, so moving the benches really kind of lead to the end of the fun we all had in those sections and never provided the kind of home-advantage atmosphere that he had hoped for. Now with the students in E, having the switch might be a really good thing! I hope it causes the opposing goalie all kinds of grief....Time to get CREATIVE!!! (...without getting obscene, of course! )

I definitely agree on that last part, but Oh! the fun we'll have this season...

Hey Niz I emailed the coaches last night so if I hear back, I'll let you know. That ice pack meeting is wednesday october at 5:30 I believe at the ice arena lounge. Most likely that's when we will be able to get together and discuss some things.

I'll be tied up until around 6:00 with band so hopefully the meeting lasts at least until then.
