Is Nesn gonna have this game live?

For all their hard work last night and (probably) tonight, the Eagles still might get sent to St. Louis rather than Manchester. It seems almost unjust, but BC can win pretty much anywhere. UNH might have a small grin, knowing that their 'loss' allowed them to 'avoid' BC, but that smile will get wiped out if they see that North Dakota is coming to Manchester. Be careful what you wish for.

But UNH hase at least one last chance to leave their helmets on the bench, groom their hair, and look pretty for the local puck bunnies for 10 minutes before the puck drops. All is good in Wild Cat country.

I'm having trouble getting UNH off of the 4th 3 seed (assuming RPI truly is the tiebreaker)

Edit: Got them a 4

Don't think I get that on DISH, maybe its one of the millions of junk channels that never have anything on

Re: #1 Boston College vs. #4 Merrimack - HEA Championship - 3/19

so we have to root for western michigan i read on EA ? if so, is that the only thing we need to keep UNH a 3 seed?

No I have ways with Miami winning that keeps us east.

i'm too lazy to do the PWR predictor thing. what is the simplest thing we need? like the key game for us to keep an eye on? besides our own i guess

Re: #1 Boston College vs. #4 Merrimack - HEA Championship - 3/19

I can get BC between 2nd & 4th overall, from what I read it's having Western Michigan upset Miami -though it's not strictly off that.

Western Mich wins
or
A Miami win and a Notre Dame win or tie versus Michigan in the consolation game will work.

A Merrimack win doesn't move UNH up. So we can kick their butt and like it!

Most of the area gets NESN+ which is also called "NESN National" because it is shown on the satellites. NESN+ is active (used to be only when there is programming). Comcast does offer the channel on the digital tier (84), but I can't seem to find it in HD.

You can find your NESN+ channel with this link.

What sucks about it is that NESN Plus isn't in hi-def. If you're not going to go to the games, one of the great things about the games at the Garden (HE and Beanpot) is that you get to watch college in the awesome hi-def they use for the Bruins.

What possible teams are in the St. Louis bracket?

Thanks to both, looks like I do get it on 474, should be a wail of a game. Wish it was HD but better than nothing. Seems HE always has to be second fiddle to something, at least its not Red Sox exhibition
