They did a close-up at one point to the right of the BC goaltender. The two players against the glass looked like they were standing in a dark closet with a spotlight beaming down on Demko. It was THAT bad.

The Dunk is always darker on TV. It's just as bright as any other arena when you're actually in it.
 
Re: East Regional-Miami University, Denver, Boston College, Providence

Even if that's true, they might want to think about installing lighting that doesn't look like garbage on TV. People are dumping on it all over the place online, and with good reason.

"All over the place" meaning a few people on a college hockey forum?

Is the Dunk as dark in person as it is on TV? The corners that are behind the goaltenders nearly look pitch black. Can't imagine it's even up to standards if it's accurate.

Advantage to DU... Magness is terribly lit on TV as well

I thought it was our TV. came to this thread to see if we were crazy. It looks like a cave. Anyone posting from there today to say if it is that bad in real life?
 
Re: East Regional-Miami University, Denver, Boston College, Providence

The tv announcer even mentioned the dark lighting in the corners.

Couldn't figure out how to post a pic via mobile, so I just tweeted it.

Much better picture on ESPNU for the RIT - Mankato game. RIT up 1-0 with 6 minutes to go in the 1st.

Mentioned Amlong. Good for him.
 
Having seen several gms over the yrs @ the Dunk.. gotta agree with both points.. the lighting on tv looks terrible today.. on the other hand.. nice place to catch a gm live, no lighting issues being there.. even from the restaurant up high..

ESPN needs get Melrose off of NCAA hockey coverage. Letting out a disappointed "aghhh" when BC loses zone control is just not acceptable. We all know EaStPN is eastern bias but this is awful from a supposedly neutral broadcast.
 
Re: East Regional-Miami University, Denver, Boston College, Providence

This announcer drives me insane. Every time they touch the puck it sounds as if they are scoring. Doing other stuff so just listening. thought the score was 100-99. Would be a great Worlds funniest Video thing- freeze the pic and guess if they scored.

It looks like I owe Eagle Nation an apology.

Sounds like a BC broadcast to me.

And more Jack Eichel talk to throw some salt in the wound.

No one is on the ice except for him when he is in the building.

Aggravating. THe rest of his line is only window dressing even tho they are scoring

Bad non-call at the end of the BC-Denver game. Blatant trip and Buci and the Mullet had no clue what Jerry was so upset about.
