Re: WCHA 2019-20 season: We Can Do Better Than Two Bids and a First Round Exit
I played with the Pairwise predictor over on another site, and if BSU loses to Lake Superior State in the first round, independent of any results for the rest of the year, they would be on the outside looking in.
And that would make Geof happy again!

2. Will Bob Daniels retire?
3. Will Mike Corbett be let go?

Then again, FoxSportsGo is trash because FOX and now Sinclair refuse to support it properly. I still can't stream some FOX Sports feeds because they're "not in my TV package" despite my cable bill telling me differently.

I liked stretch and I don't see flo as an improvement unless the kick back is higher.
Honestly, 150 isn't that bad since I watch 5 to 6 games per weekend plus I watch some of the B1G games. It's what I do every weekend.
Second issue. I sincerely hope refs get critiqued by someone and get feedback on their performance because the reffing at our games this last weekend was questionable at best. And I'm trying really hard not to say things in a negative way. They not only called things as penalties that I could not see as penalties but they didn't call both teams evenly imho. If act A is a foul when we do it, then it's a foul when they do it also. But that wasn't how it went.
Early in the game they let a lot go and then, later on, they let nothing, not even the most minor thing, go. How do the players play if they don't know what's going to be called.

Although a deal is still in the proposal stage, the package, reportedly a service of Fox Sports, would offer free streaming of all games in high-definition over a variety of platforms, including computers, tablets and smartphones.

Re: WCHA 2019-20 season: We Can Do Better Than Two Bids and a First Round Exit
Here's my biggest issue as well: how much of a cut back is the WCHA getting from subscriptions? Is FloSports cutting a check to the WCHA that is better than the league providing the service themselves? I know the league was "pleasantly shocked" with how many people signed up over what they were expecting. Then they go and hand the reins off after building up some good will (yeah, yeah, Stretch Internet had it's own problems, but the handoff to Flo seemed awkward at best).

Also, the AHL offers a sh**ton of options for various pricing. Every team, all season, including playoffs for $100, all teams no playoffs $80, one team all games $60, one team either home or away $40, all teams one month only $20, all teams one day only $8.

Originally posted by MTUHuskies View PostI'd pay more for a college conference than AHL. It may be just me, but I think colleges have more loyal fan bases that are more likely to not be local.
A couple things I did like about WCHAtv was that you could rewind a game or start from the beginning any time while the game was live and you could also split screen and watch multiple games at once.

I feel the NCHC is overcharging when compared to AHLtv, and FloSports is just ridiculous.
I understand that I can watch more than just the WCHA on FloSports, but hiding the costs until halfway through signup, the rumored difficulty canceling, and the lack of features WCHAtv had, made it a hard pass for me.
I'll wait for CCHAtv, thankyouverymuch.
