The hockey season ticket renewal mailings went out this past week and while the full schedule isn’t finalized, there does appear to be a change from what was distributed at the Reverse Raffle in April. The letter mentions home games against Harvard, Yale, and Holy Cross. The first two we knew about, but a game against the Crusaders wasn’t on the original schedule. It appears that Holy Cross has replaced UConn from that earlier schedule, as the Huskies released their schedule and it doesn’t have them coming to Amherst.

I did notice that Bentley released their schedule, confirming their game against UMass.

From what I’ve heard, everything is still on track for UMass to play Vermont at Fenway on January 7th. Others have noted that Hockey East has kept that date clear of games involving other Hockey East teams.

Speaking of the season ticket renewal, one benefit that has been instituted this year is a discount based on the length of time you’ve had season tickets. It definitely pays to get seasons tickets.

Sounds like co-captain T.J. Syner was impressive at Capitals Development camp, scoring two goals in the final scrimmage and drawing praise from a Caps blogger.
