    Hearing from sources that @hockey_east is very close to announcing its first league-wide digital platform to broadcast all men’s and women’s games beginning this season. There are details to work out, but being told that CBS Sports will be the network hosting the platform.

    Not sure what the actual cost or pay structure will be but would expect it to be something similar to what the NCHC has with their https://NCHC.tv digital platform

      Maybe this has been answered, and I’ll apologize in advance I haven’t read this thread thoroughly, but as a UVM fan living in Atlanta, will I be able to stream the games?

        You'll still be able to stream them but I suspect there's a pricing package that's yet to be announced. I'm hoping it ends up at a number that's palatable for those of us who are used to paying $10 per game to stream road games to still be happy with it even though the home games would no longer be free.

          At the moment the website lists all games through 6 October as free.

            The 2 NU home games that are not on NESN should still be free streaming through the howlin huskies productions ... looked like 11/16 and 1/31 v. PC will be available through NU stream.

            The biggest questions I have is will the cbs stream be avail on multiple screens at the same time or just 1 screen? will games not at a Hockey East arena be available through there? (Like the games at SCS and Belfast)

                Were the games on the first two February Mondays intentionally omitted from the NESN/HEA schedule?

                  Those aren't Hockey East games, so most likely.

                    As someone else already pointed out, they're not on the NESN/HEA schedule since they're not HEA games. But NESN owns the rights to those particular games so they'll be televised on NESN anyway. Just not as part of the HEA package.

                      There's a lot of non-conference games on the NESN package already. Just take a look at October:

                      RPI at UMass
                      Wisconsin at BC
                      Lowell at Minnesota-Duluth
                      Merrimack at Holy Cross
                      Union at UMass
                      Holy Cross at Northeastern

                        I immediately noticed the picture of a UVM player in the HE preview article. This seems to strongly suggest that UVM will be the face of HE this season!

                        (God help the league if that's the case)

                          I saw the part in Connolly and Hendrickson's season preview about a 12th team in Hockey East. Please, no Arizona State. One of the best things I feel that works for the conference is its geographic concentration. Recognizable regional rivalries. The tough question then is, what potential places have the resources and desire to compete at that level? Thinking not that much further afield, Syracuse comes to mind, they have a women's program, but like anything else, always depends on donors coming up with the necessary start up cash. Everyone always says URI, but again, where's the desire and the cash. I think NYC would be a great market to step into (which every conference thinks) if there was a suitable candidate. Something from thinking WAY outside the box? - McGill.

                            After seeing the way those canadian teams played in exhibition a few years ago, no thanks to McGill.

                            I like Bentley (new rink at 4k is fine in this day and age), Holy Cross a little bit of a dark horse due to lack of stadium/competition from Worcester Railers. Maybe the newly legit AIC is in the conversation?

                            UMaine Portland?

                              Connolly talked about ASU to HE in a USCHO podcast released following the WCHA defection news. It had me wondering if that idea was the last straw for Bertangna. I'd prefer not to have ASU join because they would just be another short timer looking to jump ship at the first opportunity.

                                Probably not in the cards but Quinnipiac has been my first choice
                                Would expand the footprint more toward New York
                                they have televised games on cable in that region
                                Close and an outstanding hockey facility
