Game day!
games are onESPN+, and the tsn app in Canada.
not sure about the first game, but OSU’s site says Clay Matvick (sp), AJ Mleczko and Hilary Knight will be the broadcast team.
These should be amazing games. UMD NU feels like a toss up, OSU should beat Yale; emphasis on should.
Is it 330 yet?

This game is intriguing. After Northeastern lost to UW in OT in the championship, you could tell that the Huskies had something extra to prove in this year's rematch with the Badgers. Now in the semi, NU plays a team that it knocked out in the last year's semi in OT. Maybe this time, the Huskies' opponent is the team that feels it has something to prove.
As when NU met UW, it is a matchup of marquee top lines, although the first line for the Badgers had been misfiring to an extent for much of the second half. From what I've seen, the Hughes line is as good as anyone in making teams pay for mistakes. They aren't a group that will send shot after shot wide of a partially open net. The Huskies have an advantage on the blue line, and definitely in terms of being able to create offense from the back. They just need their offensive D to stay home, particularly when UMD's top line is out there.

My impression/recollection from last year is that Northeastern was caught by surprise with the speed that UMD played with, and that allowed Duluth to get out to their lead. But as the game progressed, Northeastern got 'sped up' to the tempo, and managed to 'win' the second half to get to OT. No such 'speed' disadvantage when they played Wisconsin two days later. And no such WCHA speed advantage last week for Wisconsin. So I'm guessing that Northeastern won't be caught by surprise, like they were last year. But what do I know?
Even with no Wisconsin team playing, as Badger Bob would say, it's a great day for hockey. Looking forward to it.

ESPN is trying to charge me for the stream. W T F?
Am I doing something wrong?

That was not the case last year. We went from free last year to not free this year? Thanks, Disney! "Progress".
Yea it’s unfortunate. I believe Sundays championship is on ESPN U.

I spent the $7. And then in between period I looked for a 'pirate' re-stream (like you can often find for MLB and NFL games) of the Canadian stream, but nothing so far.
It would also be nice if the stream would stop dropping out... like while the first goal was being scored!

I don't know what they said on the radio, but I bet it didn't do justice to that save by Soderberg. WOW!!
1-0 NU after 2. NU’s pp was uninspiring but the rest of the period they looked great. UMD missed on a mini break away...need to bury one of these chances.
the play at the end of the 2nd referenced above was fantastic from both teams!
rink looks great obviously, crowd looks sparse but we’ll see what the numbers are. Love the roar zone posters.
Now that ARM has taught me the correct name for UMD, Bemidji State et al I notice the industry wide butchering (mixed in with honest league colloquialisms) I don’t think I can complain if Ohio State is referred to as literally Indiana next game.

World class save for sure especially considering a goal would’ve put NU up 2-0. Any info on Soderberg’s plans next year?I believe UMD is bringing in a top Canadian goalie next year…should be interesting!

Have to play in the locations that bid to host. We've had FFs hosted by Lindenwood and Mercyhurst. Is Quinnipiac the only ECAC host that we've had?
