Likewise - and was watching from a laptop. Lagged a bit, but was fortunate enough to capture the big one.
Did the celebration after Paul's goal by the Lakers look muted at all to anyone else? Sure the crowd went nuts, but these guys look all business atm.

I was watching from a laptop and got ads probably every 10 minutes or so. It was really really really brutal. Luckily I didn't actually miss any goals, but there were a couple close calls.

As for their celebration, I think when you put up 55 shots in a game and you just got your 3rd goal, you're probably feeling more relief than anything else. It was a long game, and they were all exhausted I'm sure. Overall this season, Oswego's shooting pctg has been around 13%, so on 55 shots they usually have about 7 goals. To only get 3 must have been supremely frustrating.

For stat geeks, here's how I calculated that:
Raw data here:
http://www.uscho.com/stats/team/oswego/mens-hockey/2012-2013/#teamsummary
37.75 shots per game
Goals per game = 4.86
4.86 gpg / 37.75 = 12.87% of shots are goals (aka shooting %)
12.87% x 55 shots = 7.08 expected goals

For their part, Adrian's shooting % this year was about 13.5% (slightly better than Oswego's) so they should expected about 4.5 goals out of their 33 shots. They must have been pretty frustrated as well.

The NCAA informed us that there could be no advertising unless we paid a fee to do so.

Mr. Jaslow posted in another thread about the game possibly being switched to the later starting time. Didn't this happen before up in Placid? I seem to remember that happening, and I can't see why they wouldn't make this match up the later one. Let's get this work week out of the way!

Norwich/Oswego WILL take place at 4pm per the memo from the NCAA today sent out to all four advancing teams. So we can put that rumor to rest.

Thank you for the clarification. Not that it matters as I plan on attending both contests.

Well either Adrian paid the fee or the NCAA was asleep, because I got commercials every 20 minutes, including back to back identical 30 second ads for Direct TV about 3 minutes before the GWG. It appears that who got commercials when depended on your connection, and the data that US Stream had on you. I did get a button to click which essentially said "if you pay us, you won't have to watch these commercials any more"

Good news for me unless the game goes into extended OTs, because my wife has me scheduled for a social engagement starting at 4:30 MDT, and I won't be able to see the second game at all.

Really I guess we know who pulls rank for a person who taught at a military school. The sacrifices we sometimes have to make for our spouse's.

The fee was $1,000....they may have rolled that assumption into their model when they sold season passes...the monthly nut was $4.95, which would have gotten you the game without interruption...it was strange how the feed and commercials were dynamic based upon bandwidth and device...either way, the camera work wasn't worth $4.95 or $0.49 IMO

So the higher the bandwidth the less commercials?

Not necessarily...but if the server was to deliver the same content to all platforms, it doesn't sound like it did...I thought if you paid, you had no commercials and if you did not, then you did...sounds like it was a bit more random than that... No matter - we will have a proper production this weekend...

As I said, the camera work made me think the game was being played on aircraft carrier during a hurricane.

what a game,both goalie stood on their heads at times and shackell kept them in it in the first,could have been 3-0 to start,we took the 2 period off/had 5 pens,with one dman taking 2 pens in the game in which he wasnt moving his leggs and it cost him both times,otherwise our d played very well,moved the puck well,covered in the dzone and killed the pens well,only thing I can say bad about the d was on several occasions we let adrian in to out dzone waaaay to ez,especially on the pp,perhaps a little more step up at the blueline?? That will be harder at LP as it is a BIG rink..as for Offense we were all over the place AWESOME, we won most of the battles, and the forecheck was great,dont remember it being that good.Also dont remember adrian having to many oddman rushes which is great,the back checking was tops and made huge difference.Bottomline great game by both teams and could only hope to be there again next yr.....on to LP and a epic battle in the semis, and in my family ....me oz 87 dad norwich 55.............ps those commercials were BRUTAL

Hey Bakdraft21 - do you remember a player when you were at OZ named Eric Feeder? Think he graduated in '84 or '85.

My wife knows never, ever to pull a move like that on me.

Dumb move by the NCAA. They would have had a much larger crowd if they switch the semifinal games. They did it with Plattsburgh once, and it paid off bigtime.

I don't know why they had those times assigned to each side of the bracket in the first place. Who were they expecting to be in the primetime spot that would draw a crowd? None of the western teams are going to fill the arena simply because of the distance. The teams that can draw big crowds (Oswego, Norwich) are on the other side of the bracket.

Then again, the NCAA decided to host Oswego's quarterfinal game at Adrian where they can only seat 500. Could it be that the NCAA is not just thinking about money anymore? Nah, that's crazy talk.

My guess is that Utica was the number 1 east seed and the protocol is that the side of the bracket with the Number 1 seed in the host region is slated for prime time
