Penn State and Notre Dame tied 2-2 in front of a packed house in South Bend, btw. Way better than empty neutral sites. Hey NCAA hockey committee, are you watching?

Weird that USCHO's abbrivation for Notre Dame is NDM. Then again, they have us as MIC on their scoreboard.

 

We get to host next weekend if PSU wins and we win, right? Go Nittany Lions....?

Yeah, looks decent. They probably declined to sell any upper level seats.

If OSU played in a 5-7000 seat arena they would develop a good in-house fanbase and a better hockey culture. But even great turnouts at the Schott (they could draw 10k + for Michigan or Michigan State back in the day, not sure about now) looked sparse in that size of a facility.

1) Nationwide is a really nice arena - so sad to see that it's not full.  Boo not-being-on-a-campus-for-this

2) Jack MF Johnson and Zach Werenski play for CBJ, so maybe there's some favorable mojo in the building.

Go Blue!
