I was noticing the same thing. I was unable to make it this weekend and went to check and see how much I was going to have to pay for the video and noticed it was free! Is this just a one game thing due to this one not being an official game or is this a full season thing?
 
Re: St Lawrence Hockey

I am assuming that all home games for most sports are available free via SLU
I will inquire

At least true to date for men and women's soccer and football

However hi def for hockey does not seem to be of the same quality as outdoor soccer and football.
This contrasts w/ last years hi def webcast from New haven

All home games will be free in HD. Don't tell anyone though since we don't want visiting teams to know! :-) It should be the same quality but I think they were having to get used to the equipment.

Good night for the first line and welcome to the Freshmen. I only saw the first period but I thought a couple of them looked good tonight including Sweetman, Bayreuther, M. Carey and Masella in particular.

According to a note from the team I received.....it is free all season.

The hi def from New Haven last year may have been provided by Yale All Access, America One will be a downgrade IMO, for Yale fans at least.

Having had a financial, as well as a fan interest in last year's Yale All Access, I am very curious to see what the Ivy League Digital Network looks like; they are off to less than a stellar start with me, as I could not get them to tell me what Mens' Hockey games will be carried. And the price was certainly "right" with the YAA.
 
Re: St Lawrence Hockey

On another note ... Is it just me or does the media poll picking us to finish in 10th seem a bit off? :eek:

That's nuts given the kind of firepower you have. Perhaps they don't respect your D or Goaltending. My NU Huskies were picked dead last in HEA. That is almost as crazy. We expect a real challenge when we get to Canton in three weeks. BTW I believe there's a return visit planned for next year that your Boston Alumni will enjoy.
 
Re: St Lawrence Hockey

So is there anyone here who was at Saturday's game and can report in on how things looked?
 
Re: St Lawrence Hockey

Last word on free SLU HD w/ thanks to Margie Strait and Joe Keniston :
HD is not w/ America One who have reportedly agreed to credit me the $150

AmericaOne is a downgrade for everyone. Ever see what they do to a beautiful HD broadcast?

This is fantastic news! Having moved from Canton to Plattsburgh recently, I will not be able to make every home game for the first time in many many years. I will make as many as possible, but knowing that I don't have to pay in the hundreds to be able to watch online is exceptional. Thank you for the info! :)

See, the more I look at things and think about it, I can kinda understand where the skepticism is coming from. I mean, we did lose a couple All Americans who played integral rolls in both our offensive and defensive systems. At the same point we do have quite a bit of fire power coming back on offense and a proven goaltender who should have a tremendous senior season. My one question is with the defense, hopefully some of these young D can adapt quickly to the college level and the proven leaders can up their game a bit. If this happens, in my opinion, we will finish much higher than the 10th we have been predicted to be in. Only time will tell.

Steve, Are Adlon and crew still providing the feed? when I went on the Ivy League digital Network site, it stated that the programming was called Yale All Access. $60+ for a season pass to all IVY events is marginal, but being able to watch all the league teams (including resurgent Yale Football) would be cool. BTW, the hockey games being droadcasted are listed on the schedule on the site. http://www.ivyleaguedigitalnetwork.com/ivyleague/schedule

Sorry about the slow reply. Last Saturday the Saints looked much better than a 10th place ECAC team(as predicted in preseason polls). The Carey\Carey\Wick line was outstanding and will be a handful for any opposing team to contend with. The chemistry they have is amazing and they are fun to watch. The Wick goal in particular, Greg Carey gave Wick a drop-pass, thru the legs that Wick stepped into for a one-timer. The Carleton goalie had no chance. The second line was Ward between Hughes and Doherty. Good, solid line but the Saints might have a situation like last year where they were so dependent on the Flanagan, Carey, Wick line for all of their offensive production. Really liked the freshmen "D". Bayreuther is a great skater and extremely composed at all times. Showed he has a great shot from the point with his goal. Masella is a good skater with size. Looked very good for his first collegiate game. Sweetman had one mistake on the first Carleton goal but was very solid throughout the rest of the game. McMullan and Graham were the 4th pairing out (SLU suited up about 23-24 players since it was an exhibition). I would assume they are the odd men out when the games count. Weninger was his usual, solid self in goal. No worries in net for the Saints. Depth looks much improved over last year. The coaching staff did a great job in bringing in a great recruiting class that will contribute immediately.

But you have the (probable) pre season #1 in Plattsburgh in your own back yard. It's pretty good hockey and Stafford is a rollicking good place to watch a game.
