I happened to be walking around downtown Boise that Saturday afternoon (game was at 2pm or something) and was really impressed by the amount of fans hanging out at the Plaza outside. Tickets were $15 too, more than you would expect for a club game. If their football team was in town or was playing a formidable opponent on national television it would have been a different story though.
Grizzlies are ECHL, Gulls are AHL.
I'm going to an ECHL game (Idaho Steelheads) with Sanderson playing on Friday. Do we have any alum on the Adirondack Thunder?
This loss would be difficult to swallow in the playoffs but for early season no sleep lost. Outplayed them but didn't get the bounces. Glad to see the rivalry back. Had to remind myself that last year's D was once in a lifetime good. No more getting shut out though!
Between frustration with Lucia, lack of enthusiasm for games against Big 10 opponents, and going 1-14 against in state rivals, their fan engagement is down in a trough. Kick 'em while they are down.
It was fine for the Michigan State series last Thanksgiving in terms of fluidity. Should be good quality for this broadcast. Surprised that it airs on BTN2Go when it's on FSN.
With likely a pro sioux crowd, let's discuss good chants to start:
REIGNING CHAMPIONS
FIRE LUCIA
SIOUX FOREVER
BULLDOG REJECTS
STATE OF HOCKEY (only if blowing them out)
Any others?
Chromecast didn't work (connects but doesn't broadcast) and still no Roku app.
Knowing how piss poor Duluth's production is, hopes aren't high for next weekend.
