  1. Sean M. does the play-by-play for many of the Red Sox games out here. He's good, but has a very dry, sarcastic sense of humor, and a sort of monotone delivery. I also certainly don't think of him as a hockey guy and can see him fumbling around with the WCHA players' names (he doesn't really regularly cover any college hockey games out east, either -- but, will have an east coast bias, I imagine).

    I liked Brian Engbloom when he covered the 2001 Frozen Four. No eastern bias there (he went to Wisconsin, right?). You could tell he was thrilled when North Dakota tied up the game against BC.

    Bob Norton regularly covers the UNH hockey games (if he was the larger, older, bald guy).

  2. Doesn't look like I'll be watching live out here, either (or even tape delayed), according to the stations listed on USCHO: http://www.uscho.com/m/ncaad1/?data=tv2004

    If anyone in the Boston area knows a place that will can pick up any of these stations, please let me know....

    I'll email Dataflix to see if they can come through, but I doubt it considering they couldn't pick up the championship game last night.

  3. Great news!! I'll stop listening again -- the Sioux came back after I stopped listening the first time (I shut it off before the Gophs' third goal was disallowed).

    Go Sioux!! (Over and out -- will check back later).

  4. Being #1 overall would result in that team playing the lowest seed overall, I believe, so that's at least one benefit from having that ranking. But, it's also obviously true that we all just want to be #1 in the end.

    This just gives us a bunch of things to speculate about in the meantime....

    (I also see I misread the box score when I made an earlier post -- BU scored 3 goals in 8 shots in the first 2 periods, not in 5 shots. I was looking at Matti's saves so the 3 that went in weren't accounted for....)

  5. Matti Kaltiainen (BC's goalie) had been hurt and didn't play against Maine when BC got swept -- but he played tonight. Probably rusty and maybe not 100%.

    EDIT -- When you look at the box score, you see BU actually scored 3 goals in 5 shots! (They scored all 3 goals by the end of the 2nd period.)

  6. Another penalty box thing for Brown or Scott or whoever gets in there the most: I wonder if I can call on Martha to feng shui the sin bin?" <=Or anything using Martha

    For all you lawyers out there (ya, me too):

    "2:00 for Obstruction/Interference

    Now I know how Martha feels" :D

  7. A friend of mine won a ride on the zamboni during a period break of a Boston Bruins game a couple years ago at the Fleet Center. (It was the first game Mario Lemieux played in Boston after beginning to play again for Pittsburgh.) I made my friend wear my Sioux jersey. You could clearly see it was a Sioux jersey from the crowd, and for good measure, he was on the Jumbo Tron, too. The jersey looked great! I could hear a bunch of people commenting about it, and my friend was stopped quite a few times getting back to his seat.

    Whenever I wear the jersey out here at events (Beanpot or Bruins game or whatever), I always hear people saying how great the jersey is as I walk by and it never fails that someone will come up to me and talk about it.
