I think we see an upgrade this upcoming year with the guys coming back (THEY HAVE TO SCORE) plus the newcomers putting the puck in the net more.
    He scored two goals against Canada with one being an absolute snipe while the other one was going to the net and hitting a wide open cage. Here is the snipe one.

    He did crush a guy while carrying the puck

    Coach Hastings had some good things to say about him too

        That's great news!
        WDOM was great fun back in the day but it would be nice to hear a broadcast past the Foxy Lady. 😜😋🤭
        If it's not a big time at least it's not small potatoes still!!!

          The next logical step is get the games live on Youtube or a similar streaming platform for those of use who live elsewhere and are cheap/lazy.
          I get to see virtually all of PC's road games, so that's fun.

              Other schools usually have some sort of free feed - NU, UVM, BU, UNH, and Maine are pretty good.

                None of those schools are "real" D1 overall schools, and have the type of athletic department that PC (or a BC) has. Like it or not, if you want to have the school support all the D1 programs it has, be successful, build new facilities, etc. - the department has to bring in money. Charge for seat licenses at hoops games, charge for viewing online, etc. That's what's major athletic department programs do.

                BTW, I believe the cost for Friars all-access is something like $9.00 a month.

                  BC's games have been free on ESPN3, are they also not a real D1 school with a major athletic department?

                    There's some fun jokes we can make here, but I do believe BC is a D1 school with a football team and everything.

                      It is part of the ACC deal with ESPN that they have to be free IIRC

                        I can't wait for the season to start. It's still too far away. I have PC no worse than top 3 in HE this season. Remember the days when the team couldn't get out of their own way? I like these days better. 🤗

                          Opening night seems like it's so far away. Excited about this season and have very high expectations for this team.

                                I'm very sorry to read of Mark's passing. Way too young and I'm sure his family and friends are devastated. I hope they can find some comfort in knowing he was a fine young man and was able to enjoy some wonderful times along his journey. Too sad.
