The Sicatoka

College hockey fans deserve to know, while not naming specific people, why Notre Dame and Michigan were withdrawn. A simple statement of: "< number > of the < group > of < team > tested positive. Under protocols, < team > was withdrawn." And the statement might name two groups from a team. < group >: players, coaches, training/support staff

To my eyes it looked like Wisconsin had never seen the combination of: 1. The box-and-one (or pentagon) trap, and 2. A team that skates that hard. Throw in that Wisconsin only recently (like four hours ago) became familiar with the region of the rink called "along the boards" and they were doomed from the opening drop.

No, NO, NO! Too dangerous to put on jerseys. You put on pads and wear that on the ice over them. That's why the appropriate colors.

Will give "up vote" for link.

I have the solution. All teams must wear this (in appropriate colors of course). Face shield. Build in distancing. Perfect.

Um ... you can't let that guy shoot from that spot ...

I hope they had virus protection on their phones ...

... then a trip ... 5x3 ...

Why step in and take that interference call ... < shaking head > ...

Wisconsin: 1-4 when trailing after one. http://www.collegehockeystats.net/2021/teamstats/wism

Is that like the ice capades?

Please tell me UND was at a different hotel.

So they pulled it up an hour? Better than nothing I guess.

You couldn't clear that neutral zone with a truckload of Drain-o ... it's clogged up.

Move the game up to a 6:30 pm start to match the Saturday start time.

That second BSU goal looked close to a high stick from what I saw ... but they didn't look at it.

A self-elimination tournament.

Go Spuds. (Cheering for Ethan Frisch's brother Grant, and for Moorhead to get that "never won" monkey off their back.)

Rocco with the hat in just 2:34 of clock. Predators franchise record for fastest hat trick.

< shaking head in disgust > E. S. P. N. ... Three ... < head still shaking in disgust > Why not just put it on ESPN 8: The Ocho.

I read somewhere the team came down Tuesday, dropped off gear, got tested and went to the hotel ... to come back and get tested Wednesday, to go back to the hotel. If you came back "green and green" you got to practice on the ice Thursday (today).

I disagree. The TiVo should have the WatchESPN app on it (like it has Hulu and Vudu and Amazon Prime). Midco has influence over TiVo (but admittedly not much over ESPN).

Thank you for all the suggestions. (I've done the PC to HDMI thing before.) That said, you all are missing my point: I pay Midco a lot of money for cable (and TiVo) and internet ... Why am I having to hink-a-jink around? The correct answer should be either: (a) Midco Channel xxx, or (b) the WatchESPN app should be directly on my TiVo

Midco cable (for UND hockey) and internet ... and instead of watching on the plasma I'll have to watch on an iPad?
