Grinnell.. just want to thank you for what you're doing with this series. Amazing insight into a part of the hockey world that's not talked about enough.
@@Donny_Double_Dip I didn’t play college hockey just visited when touring school I ended up at the University of Miami in Florida so really missing college hockey
Yo Grinell, I come from a PSU family. Really cool to see you feature these guys and this team so early on. I'm out in Pittsburgh, but this makes me want to make a trip for a game. These students are treated like kings here. Seems like a good team culture too.
Fr. Played my championship game at Keybank last year and got the whole tour. It was unbelievably dirty and super underwhelming compared to the other nhl arenas I’ve been to
@@Drew2ub you are correct sir. Because it is at a State school the Pegula family did have some incentives to build the stadium. The University also uses the stadium for the students too. There are open ice times for them to skate. That was my first date with my fiancé 😬. I was there when it was first built and the team was promoted into the big10 from a “club sport”. Big time $$ team with a bunch of NHL prospects.
@@EPiche09 You realize there’s more than just hockey at Penn State right? Like world class wrestling & volleyball teams & the football experience is something only a few teams can match….. Also going to college parties when you’re 17-18 & still in HS is something you can’t even describe you gotta experience for yourself
I did a private tour of Notre Dame facility a few years ago. State of the art. The team has computerized shooting lanes to practice off ice shooting and they have to scan a credit card to shoot and it tracks each players status.
I wish local rinks would have a batting cage type facility with that shooting and passing trainer. Pay for an hour and have an auto passing machine to work on your shot vs having to wait for them to have a stick and puck at 10am every day when youre at work lol
The seating here is better than Maddison square garden the seating when i goto rangers/ knicks games i alsways have a head right in front of me. That vertical seating is the way to go.
I think the reason college hockey really doesn't work in western pa is because the penguins have a youth development programs from age 6 to college. Seeing more college hockey arenas like this in pittsburgh would be cool, but for now Penn State and RMU are the only varsity hockey programs in SouthWestern PA.
Imagine being a kid at this school and then going to AHL and ECHL and you're like "Where's the Nutritionist?" "Where do I go to get my personal smoothie" Crazy
I give penn state a lot of grief but this is nice. Still gotta come to the Ralph, that’s actually the big time. And as much as I hate them as a nodak fan you gotta check out Minnesota too. Two programs that pour millions in each year to their hockey teams
I feel like some of these schools in the USA have better arenas and training facilities and all that xD I could be wrong but i feel the younger teams in the USA should be so much better than anywhere else in the world "maybe they are i am not sure" having all this and being a kid and getting all the help is just insane, I quit hockey before highschool so i never went to a hockey school but the ones i have seen here in sweden are way behind on what they have in the schools for the players
This series is pure amazing. Dont stop please.
They even busted out the Thor hammer. That’s legendary
I love how prideful and enthusiastic Christian was in this! Please pop out to Merrimack sometime Mike!

That barn is so beautiful. Catching a game there was the highlight of touring colleges my senior year of high school
But you never play in it. How many times can you watch game live? How much charge ticket make money back?
Where’d you end up playing?

If only Pegula would spend this money on an updated Buffalo Sabres Arena
He get a tax write off for this would be my guess.

@@Chiwiwiis Definitely needs a facelift
@@ChiwiwiisThe home locker room is the only nice part.

One of the biggest things I’m grateful for is growing up 30 minutes from State College its lead to so many great memories & friendships
They've been around for lime 5 years.

Need to do a tour on the Ralph engelstad. Nothing else in college hockey compares
Crazy how far they've come since the ACHA days. Even then they were still top notch and it was great to play against them.
And it’s all thanks to a plastic Thor hammer
Its insane to see such a nice facility and then you see north dakota's and you're like wtf this is another level😭
great series ! please keep making more of these.
Nice way to wake up with some Chiclets content!! Keep killing it G!
Wonder how many weight rooms Penn State and all other D1 schools have. Some of these facilities are super amazing!
Legendary Penn State Hockey. Beautiful.
They only go D1 few years ago

He's the ultimate hockey dude bro 😂. As long as he doesn't get caught up in a scandal then the sky is the limit 📈
Love this series. Can't wait for you to come up to The Ralph
Grinnelli just gets the content game! Love this stuff!
Great series going to the different schools. It be neat to see a OHL or any Canadian JR teams facility
lol major Junior rinks
Captain seems like a solid dude
Would love to know where that PSU hockey hoodie is from that Berger is wearing
You’re killing it with these G. Keep it up!! Come to YOST!
Thanks Mr and Mrs Pegula!
PACK THE PEG
very well spoken young pup
This is pretty awesome! College hockey is a tough business with Hockey East around. Hard to compete with college hockey in Boston
That was great! Very well put together!! Taking notes!
WE ARE!
Perennial losers!
Great content. Nice facility. You gotta get up to NODAK.
Go to UMD! Back to back D1 champs! 2018 & 2019 🏆 🏆
1:55 I love the shock in his voice
Do a university of Alberta locker room review. It will be a shocking comparison.

You have to go to Minnesota pls pls pls
I’ve been back there before, I play hockey there. It was super nice!
Not gonna lie those uni’s are sweet!
Legitimately a sign about not taking facility for granted and Mike has loser do a cannonball in their expensive cold tub
Couple clicks for G out here grinding!!!
About time you come to a school in Minnesota
Great ep, G!
I think these teams should have Grinnell out there on the ice with them for a practice during these tours.
Still think NoDak takes the crown. Hope those facilities get shown at some point
Lets go i love this series
I give penn state a lot of grief but this is nice. Still gotta come to the Ralph, that’s actually the big time. And as much as I hate them as a nodak fan you gotta check out Minnesota too. Two programs that pour millions in each year to their hockey teams
I know it’s year of the warthog but might be year of the grinell, G is putting in WORK
After seeing North Dakota’s (or whatever Dakota school that was) facilities none of these schools matchup
After seeing a few of these, why would anyone play in the CHL ? These are world class installations plus you get a degree.
Better chance to go pro in chl. way more Europeans & higher skill level
this kid is great on camera
Great college barn.
G keep up the great work 🙌
I loved playing youth hockey tournaments there
INSANE FACILITY ❤
love these videos
Penn State baby!!!
Banger as always G!
id like to see featured in these all the nhl players that come from the university/college
The favorite word for almost all high level hockey players is "obviously". LOL!!!
Did Grinnell every play hockey? some of those shots on the rapid shot were questionable if so
Use this as a “we want Grinell at the Ralph” button
We are baby let's go
Great job G!
Amazing Grinell
Great series, WMU should be on the list
What a great place to recover after all those L’s. Go green!
Penn State is a relatively new D1 program! They’ve made some extreme strides in such a short time frame!
WE ARE
Go to the Kohl Center next! Unreal barn; history; staff!
Go to a northern Michigan tech game in the UP buddy
Next go to the brand new miso arena at Augustana university
Im still shocked by how amazing the facilities are at universities in the US. They're way better than professional sports teams facilities in the UK
These are amazing.
I feel like some of these schools in the USA have better arenas and training facilities and all that xD
I could be wrong but i feel the younger teams in the USA should be so much better than anywhere else in the world "maybe they are i am not sure" having all this and being a kid and getting all the help is just insane, I quit hockey before highschool so i never went to a hockey school but the ones i have seen here in sweden are way behind on what they have in the schools for the players
HOCKEY VALLEY
Can anyone expect Grinelli do these please...
Representing the Lou well
This is better than alot of nhl teams
Unreal spot .
G, I am really enjoying these. Keep up the great work!
Anybody else notice that the ping pong game kinda followed the beat to the music? Am I nuts?
If only there was a host that had more personality than a cardboard box.
you missed an entire rink in the same facility
WE ARE!!!!
Have to serve off the ends in pong G
Uconn should take some pointers, Uconn Facility Dissappointment
Go to UMD! Back to back champs 2018 & 2019.
Tough rapid shot session, Christ
We need BC next
The Ralph Englestad is way more amazing
Come to Sweden boys!
this is insane
Those hoodies!
From a Canadian prospective
If you build such huge stadiums why do you charge so much for education.?
Do the Minnesota gophers
wow i hope my kid is deadly at hockey and wicked smart
A fine establishment
Do North Dakota
_DiDN’T RECKON KNEW STATUE WOOD BE HOUSED iNN LAGER BLOOD_
Awesome
Grinell just stole this entire video series from ECH
