More BG/UM Hockey Photos from the Lucas County Arena

Hey folks... some more hockey pictures here. My best experience shooting hockey yet. A few reasons for this:

a) BG played UM at the Lucas County Arena in Toledo, where the Toledo Walleyes play. This is a brand new arena that has been in operation for less than two months.

b) The Lucas County Arena has two holes in the glass and an open photo bay between the benches. FINALLY! No more shooting through the glass for this game.

c) Great lighting. It was amazing. I was able to stay at ISO 800 and 1/1250 @ f/2.8. It felt good to shoot like that.

On to the shots. As always, C&C welcome. Link is at the bottom to the rest of the set.

1. If only the ref got out of the way....

2. Going to block a 2 line pass
Image

3. Nice save! (We still lost 4-1 this night, but beat Michigan the night before AT MICHIGAN!)
Image

4. The attack was on for most of the night
Image

5. Still looking for that puck
Image

6. Looking down the rink
Image

7. A good breakout by BG
Image

8. One of our star freshman players, Jordan Samuels-Thomas. Pretty exciting to watch most nights, when he's not double teamed.
Image

9. Broken play for UM. Nice poke check by Kai Kantola.
Image

10. So much traffic in front of the BG's net. Continued all night.
Image

11. These two had fun for most of the night.

My favorite is #5 because you can see the BG on the puck.

Nice work!!
