Time for a change?
With so many intriguing Hockey East matchups, Providence coach Nate Leaman would like to see the games staggered, allowing for fans to watch more action.
“We’re playing all of our games at 7 o’clock on Friday night. For a fan that wants to watch our league, why aren’t we playing on Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday afternoon, Saturday night, even a Sunday?” said Leaman. “It’s too good right now, and we’re the only league in the country that can do it because we’re close geographically. It’s exciting how good our league is this year, but we have to take advantage of it, because it’s too good of a product.
“If you’re a fan, wouldn’t you like to watch a game to kick off the weekend [Thursday], whether it was Maine-UConn or PC-BC, or anyone? All of our fans across the whole league, if there’s one game on a weeknight, they’re all going to tune in and watch it.” <-
