I watched it at fasthockey.com and it was free last night, but it looks like it would cost about $8 to watch it now on demand. IMO, the caliber of the hockey and the webcast wouldn't be worth $8 unless you have someone on the team. Neither team was as sharp as they'll be in another week or two.
I don't remember watching their product before last night. It wasn't the worst I've seen, but there were some definite problems. The video and audio seemed to be part of two separate productions, so they would show video of interviews between periods, but the audio was unrelated -- seemed to be an open mike picking up the P.A. There were about 15 seconds of picture breakup akin to driving through a tunnel, and the play-by-play guy was obviously totally unfamiliar with the names for both teams and had never taken Hooked on Phonics. But it was free, so it was definitely far better than nothing. At least there were replays, a feature lacking in at least one of the NCAA quarters, and there were more pixels than in some of the others.
