Currier's faceoff strategy seems to be to draw the ball back and have Currier beat everyone to the loose ball. And it works.

It is kinda nuts how much of a threat Dobbie is still, I keep thinking he'll lose a step. I've talked to a couple guys who know him and there were times in the last few years he could barely walk after games, his knee was just toast.

That was a good sized crowd...I would say as good or better than any in the post Covid era, with the exception of the $10 preseason games.
I think the Necks did well selling a bunch of tickets on a deal for Boxing Week. Lower bowl tickets were $30+ dollars, and upper bowl was in the $20s.
