Union just changed its nickname from Dutchmen to Garnet Chargers. No, I'm not kidding. No, you don't need to re-reupload. Also, I've been to Yale's arena and it's unlike anything I've ever seen. Photos and videos don't fully do the place justice. I asked myself several times walking around in there, "How did they build this?"
Gotta love those old school barns! Also, since Quinnipiac won the Natty this past season, I imagine they'd be adding a banner or so to commemorate that
I was at Disney World watching the game and I saw they were down in the last 5. Minutes and left figuring it was over. I then found out they won so best vacation ever!
Oh wow I didn’t even realize how many you missed as well. That conference has some nice small venues. You’ll enjoy the one for Hockey East. My guess is you’ll like the one Maine has.
As a Connecticut resident, I have been to the Yale women’s hockey playoff game against Northeastern at Ingalls Rink. Yale lost and got eliminated though, but it was still worth it going that March day. I was gonna go to the January regular season game against Harvard, but it was sold out because the governor of Connecticut was there. Also, did you know that in 2013, the Frozen Four’s national championship was an all-Connecticut showdown? That’s right! Yale defeated Quinnipiac that year in Pittsburgh!
Which... I can get that there probably isn't much of a market for trying to make Union into the Dutch equivalent of whatever Notre Dame is for the Irish Catholics of America... but... Garnet Chargers? Even with the idea that "chargers" comes from the local electronics industry... that's just such a weird name.
4:05 Hobey Baker played for Princeton around the turn of the 20th century. He must have been pretty good, as the NCAA have an award named after him which goes to the top player in Division I hockey every season.
Stone Age ? Cornell’s Lynah Rink is the most storied rink in USA college hockey-bar none. Its fans are called the Lynah Faithful and players LOVE playing there.
Anybody know which college that is at 0:07? Nice old buildings there. Every one of these arenas is pretty awesome for college hockey but I think Hobey Baker (Princeton) and the Yale Whale have to be tops.
