#1 Boston College vs. #6 Northeastern...TD Garden (Non Beanpot) Edition

Re: #1 Boston College vs. #6 Northeastern...TD Garden (Non Beanpot) Edition

Just got tickets for the weekend at the Garden box office.

Didn't even ask for a student ID so I saved a few bucks.
Woo!

It seemed as though NU hadn't "learned" how to win, how to put the last nail in the opponent's coffin. We should send a note of appreciation to BC for demonstrating how it is done. We learned some important lessons in that series and have really benefitted as a result.

Look, I am not one of those that are stunned with NU's appearance in the garden or the turnaround, seems like it happens every year. The talent is there and has been in many other years but you just haven't been able to get it done for the most part. An upset here and there with said talent should have happened, especially in early February. Clue Madigan in that the season doesnt start after Santa comes down the chimney but rather in early october and you're good
 
Didn't see this mentioned here yet so wanted to point out that due to Bruins coverage, this game will be on NESN+

It will also be in main channel for an hour before the Bruins pregame kicks in

Didn't want anyone screaming that their DVR didn't get it all

I thought it was on NBCSN?

AFAIK, you can also get it on NBCSN locally, if it's in your cable/satellite package.

No, you can't. It's blacked out on NBCSN in New England to protect NESN.

Yes, it'll be awesome when the game switches to NESN+. Here's how the game looked from my vantage point in 2014 and 2013:

NESN is a crime against college hockey. Watch a game on CBS Sports Network or NBC Sports and compare it to the NESN product. NESN looks like cable access in comparison.

They should just put the whole thing on NESN+ if they're going to use it at all.

NESN+ infuriates me. NESN has a whole second channel that they basically never use, except for the Hockey East semis because it seems like the Bruins are always playing a road game at the same time so they switch midgame, or some other random time when something was scheduled on NESN but they preempt it for some ridiculous reason and move it to NESN+. Otherwise, 90% of the time I look at it they just run audio only of what's on NESN at the time. I wish they'd just make a channel out of it. Put Hockey East games on it! You could have a game every Friday and Saturday! Hell, put ECAC or AHA games on it too if there's no HEA games.

When it's actually NESN-produced it's not so bad. The American Sports Network productions are supremely terrible, especially the studio guys. The one kid who was a club goalie at Stony Brook isn't so bad, but the host and that former BU player are really awful.

The whole game will be aired on NESN+ so you don't have to worry about switching. Now, I have to find out what channel NESN+ is on FIOS in Ashland, Ma... Time to google it...

Edit: That was easy, 578. And Go Huskies!

Hey Mook, just spent about a half hour of just QUALITY time chatting with Jasmine :D

Lol at that not being a trip and than NU almost scores on the other end. Complete joke of a no call.

Anyway, just a continuation from last weekend. BC not playing well. Now wondering if they have simply peaked and can't get back to where they were earlier in the year.
