And with NSN broadcasting, I'm assuming it will be George Como on the play by play....Couldn't be better than that!

It's at Midd? Then you should get the Midd announcers unless Primelink makes a different decision.I'm pretty sure the students will be the ones broadcasting but I could be wrong.

It's still been the Plattsburgh student announcers.
Usually in years past, the PSU broadcast students have been the ones working the camera's and doing the commentary for the primelink.
No, I gave it up this year. With my new business, officiating high school volleyball was enough for me and I wanted my weekends free. I miss it and I don't miss it at all!BTW, are you still a goal judge?

Thanks to Michael Cassidy, Morrisville went from a 2-2 deadlock to trailing by two in just one minute and 13 seconds during Saturday’s third period.
Cassidy tallied back-to-back goals, including a short-handed one, to lead Plattsburgh State to a 5-2 SUNY Athletic Conference men’s hockey win over the Mustangs at Stafford Ice Arena.
“Hats off to Mike Cassidy,” Plattsburgh coach Bob Emery said. “He put the team on his back there and showed great leadership, and everyone followed.”
The first-place Cardinals are the only team in the SUNYAC with an unblemished record. They’ll play two nonconference games next weekend in the PrimeLink Great Northern Shootout at Middlebury.
“I never thought we’d be 7-0 going into the PrimeLink,” Emery said. “So here we are 7-0 … and the guys have shown great leadership and they’ve worked hard. And now we’ve got a true test here coming up next week.”
Morrisville (2-4-2, 2-4-2 SUNYAC) went on the power play early in Saturday’s third period. But not long after the penalty box emptied, Cassidy banged in the puck for an unassisted goal and a 3-2 Plattsburgh lead. The senior forward made it a two-goal cushion at 4:26. While on the penalty kill, Michael Radisa brought the puck down on an odd-man rush and sent it to his left to Cassidy, who buried it.
Cassidy now leads the team with five goals, which ties his career high, and nine points. Radisa picked up two assists Saturday.
Kevin Emmerling notched his second goal of the night at 17:41 on a high shot from the top of the slot.
The Cardinals dominated the shots 26-4 in the third period.
“In the locker room (during intermission) we were talking; we wanted to get pucks to the net, try to get as many shots on this goalie; he was playing very well,” Cassidy said. “Just wanted to crash the net, get rebounds. And I think we did that.”
Plattsburgh took an early lead when Emmerling smacked a shot off Morrisville goalie Steven Dombrosky’s pads and then followed it up and put the rebound in the right side of the net.
But the Mustangs continued to show a knack for scoring late goals, with Darren Young knotting it up one minute before intermission.
“We controlled play a lot. They made the most of their chances,” Cassidy said. “They got to the net and they worked. And I give them credit for that.”
In the second, Anthony Calabrese put in a rebound at 5:31 after a teammate’s shot clanged off the post. The Cardinals’ 2-1 lead lasted for nearly 10 minutes, until Joseph Santino found himself alone in front of Plattsburgh’s net and slipped the puck past Spencer Finney.
Emery said the turnover that led to the goal was one of a few defensive mistakes the Cardinals made, but he said they played pretty well overall.
“I was really impressed with the way we play offensively, especially in the second and third periods,” he said. “I thought we got a lot of pucks to the net, a lot of bodies to the net.”
Plattsburgh finished with a 56-17 advantage in shots. Spencer Finney stopped 15 to record the win. Dombroski made 51 saves for the Mustangs.

I hear you with the "I miss it and I don't miss it at all!" - for better or worse that happens often with things we "enjoy". What's the new business?
Final. Geneseo 2 Oswego 0....Not a bad thing at all for the Cardinals tonight !! Just what the doctor ordered.
Sorry, I was putting my coat on and walking out the door, didn't see Oswego's goal.
