    As far as I know, NESN no longer has a contract with Hockey East (not sure which party did not renew). They have been showing ECAC playoffs for a few years now - they can't show Hockey East playoffs anyway (at least before the semis and finals which apparently they feel is "worthy" of televising) because Hockey East TV is streaming them and charging independently for that. The reason there have been many UMass (Amherst) games on this year is because they went out and made their own TV deal. So it's not about showing the "best" game. It's all about (as usual) money.

      He absolutely should be but I'm sure it will be something cutesy like him sharing it with Madigan or something stupid like that.

      On top of that, if there was still a deal with NESN they wouldn't be showing the 1 v 10 matchup. Most likely would be the BU-UConn game.

        despite the dismal crowds at Conte Forum this year, BC led the league in average home attendance (all games) . Sadly, no school averaged 5000

          BC out shot 11-2 in the first. 0-0 after one. 2 shots on goal?

            There was hardly any life out there on the ice. A very boring and lackluster game to watch. BC was outshot badly and lucky to win 1-0.

            Someone needs to kick this team in the butt and wake them up.

            I’m sure the Womens team will be much better to watch Saturday afternoon 📌

              Last night at BU, you could hear the players' chatter during the action. Attendance maybe 1,200. Students on break, but students have comprised a diminishing fraction of attendance at BU for several years now.

              It's ironic, the caliber of play has never been better (one man's opinion), but attendance down all over.

                BC with 2400 had the largest crowd of all 4 hockey east games
                Blame has to go to league for stupid playoff format
                CT got a bye but no home game
                An interesting development is the Maine-Providence series on NBCSports Boston
                Someone probably paying for telecast but can never remember the channel covering college hockey
                don't tell the Globe- don't even have list in their sports TV section

                        BC doesn't deserve the credit for that attendance. Merrimack brought a big student section and band.

                          They actually did. There was a time in between NESN stints where comcast had a package. Started with Sean Grande and Cap Raeder. And then Eric Frede. Forget how many years but know they did games around '98-'01.

                            BC’s SOG numbers look anemic through two games, at HOME. If they survive Merrimack they’ll have to scare up more offensive chances to make the HE Final.

                              So do you think you will see NU or Providence in the final?
