Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2014-2015

I lost my ncaa tourney letter, will the game be @ 1 or 7? I'm trying to line up nicely sized group and I want to order my tickets first thing tomorrow to get the sets I want. I do believe it's 1, but need confirmation. Thanks and Let's go RED!

Truth.
 
Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2014-2015

Why wasn't the Badger-NoDak game yesterday available on FASThockey?
I watched the gophs-beavers game earlier and I see today's championship
game is available.

It was available, you just had to start over again with that game. The feed of the Gopher game ended so you had to close that and open a new feed for the UND-UW game.

The game on Sat the 14th is at 1 PM (UW men's hockey against OSU Sat night 6 PM). Ticket 'reservations' have been available since Feb 23rd.

That's weird. I thought I closed down that window and tried to start over but
never saw the Badger game listed in the schedule. Would I have had to quit
my browser application, re-launch that and log back into FASThockey to see
the offering?

Had the same issue. Discovered the second semi was listed. you had to go to page two on the fastHockey schedule for that day which was far from being readily apparent IMO. If you don't see the game you want on the schedule scroll down for subsequent schedule pages at the bottom.

Nope, I did scroll down all of the pages listed at the bottom
and went way past the 6PM ET slot w/o seeing the second semi listed.
Oh well, no loss really as I had to go to a house warming party
shortly after that game started and periodically took a peak at
the score on my iPhone.

Sometimes it seems like pot luck if you end up on the right page or not on some of this s*^#

I located the NoDak / Wisco semi near the top of page two on the FastHockey schedule for that day. It took me awhile to find it. The fastHockey site could use some improvement IMO but it seems they cater primarily to different teams / leagues other than the women's WCHA, making those live events easier to find. The first semi was on page #1 of the daily schedule so I assumed the 2nd semi would be as well. Bad assumption.

Thanks. I reserved some on the 23rd, but when I order, I'm ordering more.

I just looked again at the ticket reservation confirmation email, and it says game time is 2 PM, not 1 PM. Printed letter announcing 'post season ticket info' says 1 PM, but the email says 2 PM. So....

I've always hated the "let them play" approach. Call the game according to the rules to the best of your ability. Certain actions lead to certain results within a game. In hockey, getting the puck legally into the goal past the goal line results in a goal, a team icing the puck results in a defensive-zone face-off for that team, and hitting a player's head with your stick gets you (at least) a 2-minute penalty.

When referees intentionally disregard those rules because they're "managing" the game (or in leagues with 5-for-fighting, because they are waiting for players to just fight each other in a cheap-shot-then-fight culture), they're corrupting the competition.

Nurse tallies her second of the game on an impossible angle/deflection off of Mowatt. Beavers back on the PP...
 
Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2014-2015

Badgers take 2-0 lead into first intermission and will have about a minute of pp to start the second. Bemidji has had a couple of really good looks. Pretty entertaining game so far, though I'm a little biased.
 
Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2014-2015

Sylvester slams home a rebound with 2 seconds left as the Badgers take a 3-0 lead into the 2nd intermission. Bemidji had some golden opportunities that just couldn't find the back of the net.
 
Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2014-2015

Nurse is enfeugo! Blog reads like Pankowski is missing a lot wide. Finish them off gals and bring home that title.
