    I agree, but until the tourney selection uses KRACH, or PWR increases the value of SOS, Mich. and Miami will remain #1 seeds. I'd guess only the WCHA would support a heavier weight to SOS.

    Mankato's KTOE streams their games. It's at 1420 AM, so maybe you can pick that up?

    SIOUX @ MSU

    The SCSU game on b2 was $6. Streamed well, although the stream from that dark, dingy building was....... dark and dingy, much like the CSTV broadcast the night before. Not sure how "bright" MSU's rink is, but the b2network streams work well. This is from someone who has never had a Sioux dataflix or the currently offered stream work worth a damn. A link will appear in the schedule on your linked site about 10-15 minutes before game time. Clicking it will take you to the payment page.
  5. I've never scanned in a Mankato game with my motorized system on any bird, so, I'm guessing not. Worth blind scanning to see if anything pops up anywhere, though.
  6. Too bad, the Sioux could be in second place
  7. His hits from behind have been noticeable in every TV game this year, totally DeMarchi like. Nasty one on Lasch on Friday night, Lasch is lucky he didn't end up with a broken neck. And it didn't even warrant a 2 minute penalty, although (was it) Marco was standing right beside the hit watching.
  8. Lucia all but said in the postgame interview that it was now Kangas job to lose.
  9. Mankato up 3-2 on MDU in the third. CC, UAA scoreless after one.
  10. Mn 1 SC 1, late in the third. Denver up 2-0
  11. Dishnetwork 439, Big Ten Alternate
  12. MN 1, SC 0 in the second, broadcast in HD. Tech friendly game tonight, as they can hook and hold all they want.
  13. Paranica, Nakonechny, Bowen, Nanne was having a tough time with that group on the TV broadcast.
  14. You've got to be kidding, do you pay any attention on gpl, good grief
  15. The directv dishes are smaller than 76-80cm, and, although some have successfully used them, getting a good signal on many KU band stations does not work well (especially as you get farther away from a true south sat at your location). Direct and dishnetwork stations are also KU band but put out much more power than many of the FTA stations. You need at least an 80cm dish to get the KU band channels (the winegard is listed at 76cm, but is actually bigger than that, and works better than some larger dishes). Also, the satellite (dish and direct) lnb's are circular (I think), you need a linear ku band lnb for getting the FTA channels, so, if you want to try the directtv dish, you'd have to devise some type of mount for a KU band linear lnb. You need an unobstructed view of the southern sky; the satellites locations are related to longitude, Denver is at about 104W, so you'd have to point the dish a bit east (11 degrees east) of true south at your location (FSSN is on the 93W satellite). If you motorize, you can get to satellites from about 61W through 148W, as long as you have an unobstructed view. Check here for lists of stations available on each satellite; note that C band channels are also listed, but require a big dish (6 foot) to tune in. The dish and directv stations are also on those satellites (at my location, I get the dishnetwork stations from 199W, locals from 110W, and HD from 129W, with the dishnetwork subscription, of course), but are obviously encrypted and can't be watched without a subscription. I have three antenna's on the side of my house.
  16. Yes, I have my FTA receiver outputs (traxis has svideo, L/R audio, and an optical audio output) go into video 1 inputs on the HDTV, so I just just have to change the TV's input selection with the remote. There are very few ku band HD channels right now (most are C band), and not many options for HD receivers. The quality of the feed through the system is, however, much better than the highly compressed SD feeds through one of the satellite networks, or cable co's, and the picture looks closer to HD quality than the feed provided by the cable companies, dishnetwork or directtv. There are three FOX channels available on KU band (you'd need a motorized system to point to various satellites, none are on the same satellite as FSSN), and, unless one of the games is delivered through the NFL network HD, I alway watch on the KU band. The quality of the picture is far superior to the SD signal through dishnetwork. Same goes for FSSN on cable compared to your own KU system; the KU band system quality is much better than the cable company feed (I've had both). I installed myself, and I'm not exactly Joe Handyman. The most difficult part may be routing your rg6 cable from outside your house into the inside TV room. If that's easy, pointing is not that hard, with the help of many in the forum below.
  17. The FSSN is only available with a FTA KU band system. You will not get it with dishnetwork or directtv. If you have either, you'd have to install another antenna (76cm dish or greater), and use that antenna with a KU band receiver. Here, for example, is a fixed system you could install to get FSSN. If you'd like to motor around and get many free channels in addition to FSSN, here is a motorized system. Check out the forum below if you have questions on using a FTA satellite system.
  18. 31-28 Huskies last I saw.
  19. Motzko talked him into it. Roe wrapped both arms around Kaip, then dived and dragged Kaip with; both were penalized.
  20. Sioux are playing this period like they have a 2 goal lead.
  21. Maybe the Sioux need to get swept to hit that low that turns thing around.
  22. And if you get locked in, make sure you do a Fingers? and get locked into a toilet stall.
  23. Having watched the Blackhawks often on Center Ice this year, I expect the Blackhawks to have a tough month without JT in the lineup. He is Sharp's forward partner on the first PK unit, and has played a large part in Sharp's tearing it up with SHG's so far. Sharp and Kane have not looked as good, nor have they produced much, since JT was hurt.
  24. Both teams look much better at moving the puck than either team in the first semi. Lots of good up and down action.
  25. I doubt if Radja did anything more serious, although a player on a road trip may have some added team rules that players at home do not, like leaving the motel to party at an apartment.
