Yeah, it's really too bad. FSN needs another Alternate Channel. Or just broadcast it on Fox College Sports. I realize there are probably financial restraints to doing either, but it really sucks that this potential matchup won't be televised.

Here's the update with TV on Saturday night at 7/8pm:

FOX Sports North: Minnesota Wild
FOX Sports North +: Minnesota Timberwolves
FOX Sports Detroit: Detroit Red Wings
NBC Sports: Notre Dame @ Boston College
CBS Sports: College Basketball - Harvard @ Rice
ESPNU: College Basketball - Indiana State @ Evansville
FCSA: Anchorage @ Wisco
FCSC: College Basketball - Texas A&M @ Oral Roberts
FCSP: College Basketball - Eastern Kentucky @ Southern Illinois

So basically, every network that broadcasts college hockey is broadcasting live content that night. There is one network left that officials are working to finalize details to broadcast the Minnesota 7/8pm Saturday night game. Will be announced ASAP.

Regardless, although Minnesota does not typically video stream their games, they will be streaming all 4 this weekend on www.GopherSports.com.

That other network was the Big Ten Network:

Minnesota announced that the 7 p.m. central game on Saturday night will be broadcast nationally on BTN and streamed on BTN2Go.com

Regardless if Minnesota wins or loses tomorrow night, they will play at 7 central/8 eastern on the Big Ten Network. That means if Minnesota loses, the championship game will be played at 4/5 on Saturday without TV coverage.

Ralph is correct, it's a 4:07 PM Central lock-down time tonight, so still 6 hours to go until you're stuck (barring injury, yada yada).

There were some strange spellings of Ambroz, but I guessed that that's who you were going for.

Still missing picks from three posters out there.

And, time for my picks...

Re: RPI Pick to Click 2013-14: Revenge of the Nerds

Congratulations to MavHockey14! He made up for a dreadful showing just before the break by putting together a decidedly solid set of picks, winning his second weekend of the season, and moving himself into a tie for the overall lead.

Matt Neal (hawthr, RPIHFH, and rsfs04) was the most productive Engineer on the weekend, assisting on Bubela's powerplay goal against Ferris State and scoring an even-strength shot against Minnesota to tally 3 PtC points. The posters only took four different players and each of them generated at least an assist, so no one went scoreless with their RPI choices.

With the Bulldogs being held scoreless in the championship game against Colgate, it all depended on who put up the most points on Friday. Matt Robertson (nobody) scored FSU's fourth (powerplay) and sixth (empty netter) goals and assisted on their first two tallies, so he was the proper choice. Justin Buzzeo, with his goal and assist did well for the three individuals that did choose him. Scott Czarnowczan did not fare so well, bringing four posters down with him.

The hosts actually got their most production out of Travis Boyd (nobody), a Capitals draft choice. He scored the game-tying goal against Colgate on Friday and scored the unassisted lead-locking goal on Saturday to go with his assists on the Gophers' fifth and sixth goals, earning six PtC points. Kyle Rau, a very popular pick was worth five with 2 goals on Saturday and an assist on Boyd's goal on Friday. Fasching was with the USA U20 team and was not ready to play by Friday and did not contribute on Saturday, so his 0-point performance generated the only 0-point choice of Minnesota on the weekend.

The surprise champions of the tournament were led in PtC land by Charlie Finn (nobody), their goalie, who got five points from his shutout over Ferris State. Their most productive skaters were Brett Corkey (nobody) and Darcy Murphy (MavHockey, Ralph, and RPIHFH). Corkey assisted on Gate's second and third goals on Saturday and Murphy put one in the net both nights. The Raiders proved to be the most problematic for those picking with only six generating points and nine others remaining scoreless.

RKarger fell off her spot on top of the standings and all the way down to fourth place, but she's just two points back of lugnut and MavHockey who are now co-leaders. Other than that, not a whole lot happened with just a couple ties being broken and some minor shuffling.

There are only 8-12 weeks remaining, which means that we're likely past the halfway point in the season, so keep going for those bonus points, there's definitely still time to make up some ground.

Re: RPI Pick to Click 2013-14: Revenge of the Nerds

Link back to the title post with details on scoring

RPI returns to league action with the longest road trip of the season, starting in New Jersey on Friday and playing in Connecticut on Saturday.

The Engineers took three points against this duo in early December when they let one slip away against Quinnipiac before responding with a solid win against the Tigers.

Quinnipiac has just three losses on the season and are currently second in the league, but third by points percentage. Princeton has not fared quite as well and are currently 2-8-0 within ECAC play and find themselves at the bottom of the table along with Dartmouth, but with the tiebreaker in hand having already defeated the Big Green.

The game returns to normal with the only restrictions being on the highest-scoring forwards and defesemen. Have at it!

You may not choose the following players for this game:
RPI - Ryan Haggerty NOR Chris Bradley
Princeton - Tucker Brockett NOR Aaron Ave
Quinnipiac - Sam Anas NOR Danny Federico

Statistics / Rosters:
Rensselaer: Statistics | Roster
Princeton: Statistics | Roster | KYE
Quinnipiac: Statistics | Roster | KYE (beware of confusion for C. / T. Clifton AND C. / K. Jones)
