If it is a live stream, I wouldn't be surprised if they country-restrict it so NESN and TSN can get their $$$.

As for finding the time, well, I just happen to have a tab open with it.

Just a thought, but according to this page, in 2015 there was a live stream available to anyone not in the television viewing area.

It's possible the same applies this year. It's worth checking it out here.

Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

Was anything said during the pregame or during the game as to why Tironese didn’t play?
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

So, RPI will play Maine in the consolation game. Interesting that 26% of the reg. season schedule will be played vs 3 teams; Union, Clarkson & Maine.
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

We have now played three good games in a row with nothing to show for it except the ability to compete.
I like the direction that this team is going. They play hard. And even against a better team like Clarkson, they were able to keep them on the perimeter for most of the game and tried to counter punch when possible.
As long as they don't start to get frustrated, I think we have something good to look forward to.
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

I have stayed quiet since the start of the season, but I think I have seen and heard enough to offer my thoughts. As a said before the season, if RPI showed itself to be a team others respect based on their compete level, I think that is certainly the case so far. They don't give up. They play better late in games and when behind on the scoreboard than they did in previous years. And they look like they feel pretty good about themselves despite their record. The challenge for the coaches is to continue to fine tune the team . and keep them playing confidently going forward. They will win more games. Lets all remember they will make the ECAC's, no matter what. But I certainly would not like to be a team playing against them. They do have the makings of a team that could upset anyone. Hopefully they will not get frustrated and lose site of that going forward, The most encouraging thing is Coach's philosophy of getting better every shift, every period, every game. That is the case here. As a fan, the most agonizing thing is when a coach throws around the cliches and nothing on the ice backs that up. That is not the case here and I am most encouraged moving forward.

WHY hasn’t perry gotten any starts

Probably because wasn't all that strong when league play started, and Marshall has shown no reason why he isn't capable of being his number. Never fear, if there's a changing of the guard, he'll get in.

I suspect that Coach Smith believes in playing the hot hand. When LM has a poor game or even a poor period, we will see Perry.

Lots of great words and perhaps some things to look forward to, but **** I am sooooo tired of all the losing.
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

Lots of positives from the early going - win over Q and narrow losses to nationally ranked UND and Clarkson. Freshman are logging big minutes and contributing. I will be interested to see if they can get a few timely goals and get a few wins under their belt. If we can continue the slow and steady learning/improvements we'll be a team others won't look forward to playing In the 2nd half
