Niagara Hockey advances to the AHA Semi’s !

2 mins remaining. Wow. Huge win for the program especially on the road.

Take this one to the bank. SHU penalty with 3:15 left.

Even two days ago this seemed impossible, but there is a chance the AHC championship game could be in Dwyer. Holy Cross would have to beat RIT which is not out of the question and Niagara should be a slight favorite over Canisius even on Canisius ice.

Now it's time to start up Philly Eagles NU decorated bus as Ott joined the goal party es w Ahearn and Brockhoff.
NU 7-3 Final

Yeah it’s possible. But I still like ROT’s chances on home ice
in a best 3 series.

Nice , start the bus up !

NU split with CC at the HC in Buffalo.m this season . If the Sabs are not playing , there should be decent attendance at the HC.

Attendance for the 3 Army games at the HC was 216 , 231 , and 361. What is up with that?

Pairwise rankings after the quarterfinals: RIT 21 Niagara 32 AIC 36 SHU 41 Canisius 45 Holy Cross 48 After losing 12 of their first 15 games Holy Cross came on strong finishing 13-7-2 so they will be no pushover for RIT. No reason for not selling out the Harborcenter between two rivals with a championship spot on the line.

Look at the above attendance figures for the three Army games ? Weather issues ?

CC had about 1200 per game at the HC for the NU games in January.

1200 at NU V SHU TONIGHT.
Nice to win in their $55mm new arena with former Mets manager AD.

My guess is spring break? It will be interesting if they don't sell well and get in more Niagara fans than Canisius ones. I am curious as to how they get a Saturday game in with the HS tournament all day until 6. Perhaps an 8:30 start or maybe a Thursday, Friday, Sunday schedule. Sunday night is open as the tournament winds down in the afternoon.
