In anticipation of the large crowd at the TD Bank Sports Center tonight, Quinnipiac opened the doors to the arena 30 minutes early. So, an hour and a half before the puck drops, several hundred students decked out in bright gold T-shirts burst through the doors and ran to get prime seating behind the visiting goal.

And it wasn't just the students here early. The parking lot was getting close to capacity at 6:30.

Perhaps the 8 p.m. start helps allow fans to get to the rink early. Getting out may well be a headache. At any rate, should be a fun atmosphere here. Don't forget it's being broadcast on CPTV by Bill Schweizer and Rich Copola.
Here are the lines for tonight.
