Ah what?

No way those times are Eastern, unless that's when the tape-delayed broadcast will be.

Oh, and yes Yager, Russell told me a few weeks ago that Dirk will be going over to cover the games.

Does this station broadcast over the interwebs? I wouldn't mind getting an early hockey fix satisfied.

They do. Follow the link from pasty.com to the WKMJ live stream.

I was most recently told that the games will be broadcast (and yes, they've been advertising for it), but I've yet to hear definitive details on time, not to mention how. We were told that game reports will not be made available to us until after the game has aired.

We have 44 guaranteed games this season between exhibitions, regular season, and playoffs, compared to 37 last season.

Thank you. I won't be able to hear the Fri-Sat games but should be able to listen to the rest, assuming they will be broadcast in evening time.

This is the rink they'll be playing in while they are in Kaufbeuren.


That's right it's open to the environment on one end.

So my friend in Juneau, who spent a term studying in Austria and is familiar with all these teams, says we're pretty much effed in the a.

Austrian teams tend to play very fast and very smart, while not as physical compared to WCHA teams. The Germans are a bit more physical, but just barely.

If we're going to win one, it'll be either the first (Kaufbeuren) or the last (Klagenfurt.) She'll be "amazed" if we beat Vienna.

Granted, she's a Wildcat and Sue fan, so she might just be saying that out of spite :p

ETA: We should consider ourselves lucky we don't have to play Salzburg. They're monsters.

Re: The Paint Store Diaries: Michigan Tech Offseason Part III

Like I said before, I'm not expecting to beat a bunch of pro teams, but given that they are exhibitions and we are considered an amateur opponent (insert joke here), I somehow doubt these teams are going to be preparing and playing like it's a league championship game. Particularly once they've scored a few.

Also, I expect us to get raped by the refs. This is Euro hockey, so the officiating is probably going to make Brian Thul look like he lets the guys play. :p

Ladies and gentlemen we are one month closer to hockey season. I hope you all are happy.

One of you should get this jersey. It's freaking sweet.

I looked at it briefly, but I'm kinda at my quota for CC jerseys. Not to mention the WBS Pens jerseys usually go for stupid money. I called the team store once early in the season and they wanted $600 for a Conner jersey... I guess their fans have found better paying jobs than being an engineer.

I think only the Facebook crowd will be able to see this, but it's a quick statement from JR about the start of practice and the schedule they're on for the week. Sounds like they're happy with the way things have started off, and Damon Whitten is already contributing some new ideas.
