Originally posted by cross cheque View PostOnly televising the NCHC would be brutal, I want to turn on versus and watch the Beanpot, Icebreaker, Florida Classic, Shillelagh, etc. as long as they don't air the Dodge Holiday Classic featuring UMTC v Edina/Duluth East/Wayzata.

Re: NBC/Versus deal with College Hockey
Originally posted by alfablue View Postreading through this thread, noting NBC/Versus, I wonder why Universal Sports has not been brought up.
That's also a channel that's available to broadcast college hockey.
So we have ABC/ESPN, CBS/CBS Sports, Fox/Fox Sports/SpeedTv, and NBC/Comcast/Versus/Universal. Interesting that all 4 of the major broadcasters have sports channels.
And many of them seem to be inerested in College Hockey in one form or another.
(and ignoring the Cable only owned B10, HD Theater, and NHL/MLB/NBA/NFL channels)
(BTW, do note- Comcast has been broadcasting college hockey for quite some time now- it's not all that stunning to have Versus or Universal to show it, being that Comcast owns NBC now)
Maybe The CW could get a sports channel and start showing some games? At least part of them USED to be owned by Time Warner (the WB network). TWCS has a good footing on the college sports games in New York State (or at least RPI/Union, Colgate, and RIT).

Re: NBC/Versus deal with College Hockey
Originally posted by bronconick View PostI'd still like to see "Whatever VS will be called" go all in on the next open MLB contract and the 8 more games that the NFL is releasing for Thursday nights. They need some other real sports and a counter to Sportscenter that shows sports highlights instead of hipster crap.

Re: NBC/Versus deal with College Hockey
Originally posted by JF_Gophers View PostProbably just thinking of how NBC waits till January for the NHL game of the week.
Also, another good option for that January 7th date along with the Stanley Cup Rematch is Notre Dame @ Minnesota (Hall of Fame game).

Originally posted by bronconick View PostVersus shows NHL hockey before January. Why would they wait until January to show college hockey?
