No it's not. NESN's (and other mass media sources) rationale is actually very simple. It's all about money... that is all. ;)

You have to wonder whether all these people who are "cutting the cord" are starting to have an effect on cost of programming.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

Seems like there are fewer games on all networks, not just nesn. Regardless, very disappointing local coverage.

well it's clearly impacting the networks, espn laid of 4% of workforce yesterday

seriously not a good couple of years for bertanga:
ND - Terrible
UConn - no need
TV - terrible

The NBC Sports was a good idea, sucks that it has fallen off
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

@OverTheBoards: 99 F Logan Hutsko (NTDP) commits to BC. Great add, 5'9 skilled playmaker w/ elite vision. Developed a lot at Shattuck, 5 pts at NTDP so far.

@OverTheBoards: Hutsko recently decommitted from Penn State, the Eagles win out, continue to surge on the recruiting trail this fall.

The new schedule sucks too(both regular season and playoffs). I can't believe BC isn't coming to the Alfond this year.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

TV schedule is definitely mediocre.

I enjoy UConn in the league, I really enjoy the extra OOC games. I know I'm in the minority but I even like the long weekend in Chicago every other year for the ND trip, and as long as when they leave HE the league adds QU I don't think the league will have taken a hit during the transition period caused by B1G.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

While I don't enjoy UConn, I do enjoy the extra OOC games.

Are there any reporters who cover Hockey East in general? Would love for somebody to be able to ask Bertagna about the TV situation.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

Nice win on the road tonight, hopefully they can close the deal tomorrow night also.

I'm impressed with the defense tonight by the team as a whole and they did a good job on the PK

Bracco had some assists too besides R Fitzgerald potting 2 goals
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

I dished out $14.95 for the 24 hour NCHC access to the game, then fell sound asleep at 9:00 pm and missed it. LOL. Now that right there is funny (and I'm gittin' old). :)

Anyway, in our last season thread, I suggested switching 14 and 17 to light a fire under the Tuch/Sanford line. It apparently lit a fire under under Bracco, who had 3 asssists on the night. It's all good! :)

Demko with 2 straight shutouts. The s.o.b. never did that when he was on my fantasy team. ;) Keep up the good work Thatcher!

Hey Grant, how come you haven't had recaps of the women's team? Carpenter scores her 100th goal today and ties Stack's career points record and nothing. You are slipping son!

It's coming! I didn't realize the Ivy League Digital Network doesn't immediately archive games so I wasn't grabbing the goals as they happened. The NCHC uses the same platform so I made sure to get them as they happened for the men's game. By the time the men's game was over it was after midnight and by the time I finished the article it was like 1am so I just went to bed. The plan is to get the women's game up before today's game starts assuming Cornell has the game archived by now...

Last week I missed out on the UNH win too; Sunday was tough as I was out with family streaming the game on my phone and didn't get back until late. Excuses, I know!

so NESN comes out with their TV schedule and the first game is this Friday , Notre Dame vs Minn-Duluth:rolleyes: while UML plays at Merrimack ( HE worthy and a rivalry) , UNH plays at UMass (HE worthy) not to mention North Dakota at Vermont (hello! how many times do we get to see North Dakota?) and Ohio State at National Champion Providence, all available if NESN wanted them. I guess they're looking for that huge jump in their TV audience from those great hockey fans of notre dame:rolleyes:

Went to get my college hockey fix and NESN(+) had the Air Force/UNO game on. UNO pretty much dominated but I would have drutherd watching ND lose(3-3 tie, close enough). I hope this doesn't go on all year. : /

I watched some of that last night. Former BU commit and Bellingham native Shane Starrett was in net for the Falcons.
