Re: Maine Hockey 2014-15 Volume 2: Red's Revenge

I am not seeing Maine hockey listed on Fox College Sports Atlantic for either Friday or Saturday. At least not on Time Warner.

Don't know how clueless your local TWC is, but ours out here is second only to Verizon in its arrogance/ineptitude. I have called their customer service to find a game that wasn't listed- and been told that it wasn't being shown- while I was actually watching it.

Now that's funny.:D

Why are you looking for a game you're already watching?

Occasionally TV games listed on the USCHO site for Saturday night aren’t televised on DIRECTV with no explanation.

Probably found it while on hold and then just wanted to screw with them :)

There ya go, Wally. ;)

I was on hold for the usual 25 minutes, found the game on Ch. 1392 or some **** thing, then just watched it while the nice lady at TWC went through a million options in an attempt to figure-out the calculus involved. When she finally gave up and apologized profusely, I told her that I had *just* found it, and where it was. She said "Thank you so much! I've had a ton of calls, and corporate couldn't help us!" We made nice- I asked about her kids, even- then said goodbye.

As hard as she tried, she couldn't navigate her own shop. What a Mickey Mouse operation Time Warner is. Beyond pathetic.

Good luck finding the Maine game, all.

It's now listed in the guide as being on Fox College Sports Atlantic (channel 372 in the Bangor area). :) Only took 24 hours.

Rumor has it, Maine has a verbal for a goalie, 95 birthdate

Is Red's recruit Nugnes injured or just not good enough yet? I may be wrong, but there always seems to be a cloak of secrecy surrounding player information on this team.

Nugnes is a practice goalie they thought might get better with time. Guess that hasn't happened
 
Re: Maine Hockey 2014-15 Volume 2: Red's Revenge

I wouldn't trust the stats. The link provided shows 5 GP but he only had minutes in 3 games.

Further, the team standings page says the team played 50 games.
McGovern was 13-8-0, yet played in 36 games. Another goalie was 14-12-3 and played in 49 games. two other goalies played in 4 games and had zero minutes. Do the math... the stats are skewed.
I'm not sure what to think until I see the guy play. Maine has 3 goalies now, I guess their will be a battle next fall to see which one(s) win the job

I'm not sure how they figured those stats out. I did the math and they look OK, but they sure do have the GP messed up.

Same way things are done at Yale. In this age of more frequent decommitments and the whims of Coaches, it is probably the most prudent way to do business. You are better of just keeping an eye on Heisenbergs list, it is usually the most reliable info around. As far as secrecy about current players, he learned that from Allain, who is notoriously closed mouth about his lineup Don't sweat it, it works.

'Eavesdropped the BC forum in USCHO. A range of intellects over there. Mostly gentlemen, but a couple of coarse imbeciles' - academic_index, a Brown fan.

I like your .sig.
pretty sure the Brown fan is referring not to a BC grad, but a Westfield State grad

It's awesome having Dan Hannigan on TV for a road playoff game. 9 seconds into the game and Maine has a shot on goal already.
