From another tweet by Jayson:

UND SID just tweeted this in regards to someone asking if there is any way for people who live outside of ND can watch the game: "I spoke too soon. More options may be announced today."

You had me worried thinking it was only going to be shown in eastern North Dakota. However, all ABC affiliate networks in North Dakota will be airing the game. Woohoo! So those who live in western ND, if you have KBMY(Bismarck) or KMCY(Minot). You'll have the game I believe. I'm pretty sure the towns of Williston and Dickinson have KBMY as a subchannel?

Agreed on missing Gregoire. I think the Sioux PP was especially missing his presence.

You are correct, last year Fox Sports North picked up the UND/Yale game. I don't think we'll have to do a whole lot. Immediately after the brackets were announced, Jayson Hajdu who is the SID tweeted that UND is already working on getting the game to be watchable on TV in North Dakota. Just gotta wait for more information to be released or an announcement from UND.

The team showed up to watch this game. They got some loud cheers when they were walking through the concourse. As for the game, UAA has had some opportunities but hasn't cashed in...CC scored 2 goals with only 5 SOG for the period.

That is what he had after Friday actually. His most recent is UND vs. Dartmouth in Green Bay with Notre Dame//Minnesota-Duluth. Which will no doubt change once again once conference tournaments wrap-up.

I'll be heading to St. Paul as well. I held off on purchasing tickets to see whether or not Minnesota made it. Gonna be plenty of tickets for sale.

Looks like Eades was wrong about MacWilliam playing this weekend. Hopefully, he'll be ready to go for the Final Five.

Indeed, if the Sioux need any reminding that the rest of the games they'll be playing won't be against Tech-like caliber teams, the Final Five will provide that. The Sioux will be fine though, they are on a mission!

Confirmed that Mac won't be back for the rest of the game. Hopefully he isn't hurt too bad and that he's out of the game as precautionary measure.

Not sure, a guest in the chat asked what happened to Mac, neither Brad or Jayson realized he wasnt on the bench. Just noted that Gleason was now on D. So only 5 D playing.

Word from the live chat is MacWilliam isn't on the bench and that Gleason was moved to D.

HA! Next you are going to say Denver lost to Tech and that Merrimack is on the cusp of getting an at-large bid in the National Tournament.

I'm sure there is some sort of IPB shoutbox add-on? As for a chatroom, someone could easily make a SiouxSports.com IRC channel.

Nope, I didn't. Gregoire was on the ice for the handshake and stick salute to the fans. He could've gone off for an equipment issue or if he is injured, he's still playing despite the fact.

Has anyone else noticed that the Midcontinent feed of the game is a couple seconds behind the FCS feed? Looks like I'll be watching home games on FCS lol.

Refs ruining what was formerly a very entertaining hockey game. I think Cloud fans can agree that the officiating this weekend was/is a joke.

I remember watching the 8-1 spanking the Sioux gave St. Cloud via the B2 webcast. It was tolerable and average quality. Is it worth the $7? That is debatable, depends on how much you love Sioux hockey.

Be sure to make lots of noise. Always great to hear Sioux fans being just as loud if not louder than the home crowd.

hear, hear!

You should be fine actually. According to St. Cloud's hockey schedule, the North Dakota series will be on Charter Channel 14 both Friday and Saturday. For those who live in the Twin Cities, they'll be able to catch the Saturday game on TV via Comcast Channel 13(St. Paul) or Comcast Channel 23(Minneapolis).

I just wanted to rant a little and it is in regards to Midcontinent. Since the beginning of this season Midcontinent has had St. Cloud State home hockey games on one of Midcontinent Sports Network's alternate channels and the one time where it'd actually be worth it to have, they don't. Instead they have the UND women's game on the regular MidcoSN channel and the alternate channel 1 while they've got something else on alternate channel 2. I suppose there is still some chance that they pick up the Charter Communications feed. I mean good job to the women's hockey team and what they've accomplished but it would be nice to watch the men's game on TV as well instead of a webcast.

Agreed, while not to be a knock on Eidsness, so far this season I've seen Dell make key saves in games that kept us in games more often than Eidsness ever did. With that said though, I really hope(d) that Eidsness can get his swagger back. It'd be nice to have a good goalie tandem down the stretch as insurance.

Trupp came back and skated a shift before the game ended.
