CHA Thoughts and Prognostications: Year 11, The Finale...

Re: CHA Thoughts and Prognostications: Year 11, The Finale...

The Bemidji Regional Event Center is starting to take shape.

Had the chance to take a tour today of what's there and produced a video on it. Not much in locker room/office area to speak of, but some of the stands around what will be the rink are up.

If all my video encoding goes well, the thing should be available in HD.

Anyway, you can check out the video our web site.

Tomorrow I'll be out at practice to talk to the team about the upcoming series with the Gophers. I'll let you know when that video is posted.

-Eric

Thanks Eric - cool to see. I also enjoy the video series each week.

Tom Serratore is on Hockey on Campus tonight.

Regarding "The Hockey Show" - it wasn't on at 5pm last Friday - is that a permanent change? I looked for a KBUN website for the reason or a podcast - but it looks like they don't have one (it's 2009)?

The Hockey Show was on - just checked and it ran starting at 5:08 p.m. One thing this year is that we are at the mercy of the Fan Radio Network, as they no longer take a top of the hour break (they used to run a SportsCenter-type update right at 5 p.m., and we dumped out to start the show), so we have to start our programming whenever they take their breaks. Not much we can do there...

The Hockey Show does have a web-site:

http://thehockeyshow.blogspot.com, and has for a while now. In fact, I usually post to let folks know a new show is available (as I did last week)...

Re: CHA Thoughts and Prognostications: Year 11, The Finale...

The Hockey Show is up very early this week:

http://thehockeyshow.blogspot.com

I'll be in the Cities tomorrow and Sat., but not Sat. night. Bemidji high school made the state tourney in football, and they play Sat. night in St. Cloud, so I'll be there (after checking out the new Gopher football digs Sat. morning vs. South Dakota State)...

Just wondering when the next preview segment will be up....love watching them
 
Re: CHA Thoughts and Prognostications: Year 11, The Finale...

The Bemidji State-Minnesota preview is up:

http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/event/article/id/100013268/

Upper Deck and GOBEAVS: Thanks for watching and thanks for your positive comments. Glad to hear you enjoy my work.

Normally I make the videos Wednesday and have them posted by Thursday early morning. This week I'm behind one day behind because of the arena tour video and the Saturday-Sunday series.

I was at the last 45 minutes of practice Thursday. It looked a bit more focused and physically intense than what I've seen in recent weeks.

With that said, the players seem surprisingly laid back heading into the series.

I'll be down in Minneapolis covering the series for the Pioneer...I'll have at the least a few stories and some photo galleries on the web after the games.

Eric-

Thanks for your work on getting the BSU hockey program out there. Those of us away from Bemidji really enjoy getting as much as we can about the Green and White!

All right, Eric, your prediction for the weekend?

In fairness of appreciation, I also enjoy the Hockey Show and Sports in the Round podcasts. I hope all of these media programs continue to grow with the BSU program.

Re: CHA Thoughts and Prognostications: Year 11, The Finale...

Been cypherin' alot this week trying to figure out if this is a week that I can make a move on everyone else by NOT going with the majority... still haven't decided on it...:confused:

RMU v NU = Split - The Purps finally bust through to the win column!
UML @ UAH = UML Sweep - Come on boys, make me eat this prediction (I've got lots of salt!)
BSU @ Minnie = Arrrrrrrgggggh Split - Based on history I want to take a Minnie Sweep since no one else has; If right I'll pick up on most but if wrong I'll loose; but then the Beavs have been showing one unmistakeable trait of all really good teams... they find a way to win even when being outplayed!!! Oh well, I guess I'll go with the crowd... for now.

Moose at KBUN and Brian Schultz at Mix 103.7 do great work in covering the hockey season as well. John McRae has been writing BSU men's hockey for The Pioneer some time now and he's very good too.

As for my prediction- I'm going to take a neutral stance since I'm covering the game :D

IMO I think a split would be considered a successful weekend. If they are swept, I think they will be happy as long as effort is there. A BSU sweep would be nothing short of stunning...even for November.

Thanks Millsy and everyone else. My work means nothing if no one watches/reads...so I'm really appreciative.

Re: CHA Thoughts and Prognostications: Year 11, The Finale...

I agree with the other posters. The hockey previews from the Pioneer are excellent. Probably the best use of youtube I have seen in a long time.

Good luck Beavers.

RMU 5
Niagara 3

Kushneriuk with the hat trick for the Colonials. Game could have gone either way, Ostergard made some great saves tonight.
