  1. The built in roku on the tcl' is pretty sweet. You hit the home button on the remote and you have all channel viewing options right there in front of you. Using my phone as a hotspot that had given me mediocre results watching nchc tv streams roku channels flawlessly. A 40" roku tcl at Amazon is $250 and weighs about10 lbs! You can open apps on your phone and stream directly to your teams use your phone as the remote as well. I've found the small remote is all I need. not sure how this compares with the plug n play roku's but the built i like the built in. Plus tcl is the top selling tv in China. Just doesn't have brand recognition here...yet.
  2. Yeah it may not be possible with an indoor antenna any more. I lost wday on my setup about a year ago but it hasn't been a big deal because wdaz has come in flawlessly. Prior to a solid antenna I seemed to have the best luck picking up the vhf channels with the old fashioned rabbit ears style antenna with the circle in the middle(cheapest one at wal-mart/Kmart). Remember many of the indoor antennas sold now are uhf only so won't pick up kvrr or wdaz.
  3. Both can easily be had with an inexpensive antenna.
  4. A roku channel would be a huge step forward. Roku is built into many of the tcl tv's which are extremely affordable and I can stream Netflix with lte data flawlessly on mine!
  5. I read somewhere within the last couple months that und hockey might be available this next season on Hulu or Apple TV. does anyone have any details?
  6. Davek the only guy in the nation watching the finals in standard def.
  7. I'm wondering when the old rivalry with the WheatKings will be re-kindled and this can be settled on the ice!
  8. CHL puts more players into the NHL. Though I'd put this year's und team up against any chl team;)
  9. Is grand forks trying to be Fargo with a new detox and a library downtown? All this is doing is asking for more trouble downtown. Ask anyone in Fargo how it's worked for them.
  10. 1. I understand that but the ncaa is not the only feeder league into the NHL. NCAA football is the only feeder league into the nfl. 2. So what? double that percentage played major juniors. 3. Ok
  11. And kiddie corner to there will be a really nice coffee shop!!!
  12. Not knocking und hockey's accomplishments or anything but most of the hockey world would also consider ncaa hockey a step below juniors in Canada.
  13. Before this season I recall Brad saying there could be an interesting situation requiring und to think out of the box regarding their tv deal. Could a big ten offer be what he was referring to?
  14. To me Logan Brown stood out more than any other player in the tournament. Big, athletic, and sways making plays happen. Too bad he's playing Canadian juniors.
  15. I haven't looked too far into who but according to the TSN announcers a number of the USA U18 players have committed to Michigan.
  16. Crowd looks decent on tv for USA Canada game. Maybe 5-6000 fans? USA leads 6-1 after 1!
  17. TSN has given some pretty neat tours of the Ralph. I think that's pretty good exposure to any potential UND hockey recruit. You need to remember this is Canada's ESPN.
  18. Correct kucherov from Russia holds the record with 21 points. I misunderstood the TSN color guy.
  19. 4-3 Sweden. Jost's last assist makes him the all time point leader for the tourney with 15.
  20. Yeah I think they'll end up in the red on this one now
  21. The world juniors were a perfect storm for the Ralph. No nhl going on at the time and the Canadians showed up to watch. their dollar is weak now I know but TSN has said multiple times for this tourney the Canadian dollar is worth the American dollar at the Ralph. Remember they've already exceeded ticket sales from the same tourney in Fargo. USA needs to win this semi to make this tourney a success though. The Ralph is banking on a USA Canada final.
  22. For who? i know the Ralph was promoting this for a long time at und games and all but I'm not sure it has been promoted the right way to get butts on the seats. I've spoken with some Canadians around town while shopping the past week and not one of them know about the tournament going on. For or the average joe I think it's been a struggle just to find out who is playing at what time. I know for me I had to go to the Ralph's site, click on a link to show me the game times, click on another link to find out the ticket packages, then decipher who is playing at what time. Google iihf u18 and the 2015 tourney link pops up above this year's. The herald has done a few write ups but i haven't seen much. I mean there's families that have travelled here from the other side of the world! There is top nhl prospects playing here! TSN has shown plenty of big names from the NHL in the stands and in the suites over the past ten days. Today Lou lamorello and Brendan shannahan are in the house but does anyone know?
