7:03 left ND up 5-3. They are in full prevent mode. BD

5-3 ND with 9 minutes left for those without Altitude. BD

Sorry meant NFL. Guess my heart is thinking hockey!! BD

Agree it is all about money. But the fundamental difference is that the NHL owns these teams. ESPN doesn't. They would not be able to do squat if the NCAA would not let them. Oh yeah thats right the NCAA is busy working on other more important issues. The only way to operate in this "new world" is to join them. I would suggest if people are big fans they should get a satellite or high speed internet. Eventually I think we will be getting all our programming via the internet and hopefully we can just order the channels that we want and pay for what we use and not this package garbage. They put too many crummy channels in with good ones because there is no demand for half the stuff on TV. BD

That early 90s dynasty at Lake Superior State University with a .541 winning percentage is your 5th place team on that list. Too bad they couldn't have kept it up. BTW isn't the HC for ND the same guy who coached that team? BD

Cats take another penalty for a 5 on 3. Kill it off back to 5 on 4 again. BD

Irish score 23 seconds into 3rd period. BD

UND .692 Michigan .667 Denver .658 Wisconsin .642 Who do you think 5th is? This one is a suprise. BD

I did a bad job of explaining it. I was looking for winning percentage. But some of the suspects are the same. BD

Didn't want to start a new thread so sorry if it bothers you - just looking for some fun between periods. Quick Quiz Name the 5 top winning Colleges in NCAA Tournament History without using Google, etc.. Lets see if we have some hockey minds out there that are still sober!! BD

FSN North did not have the opportunity to purchase todays games. The only game today that was available is the UNH vs ND game. It was sold to Altitude. FSN North could have purchased this game but it would have interupted the Wild Game. Blame ESPN and the NCAA for letting them do this kind of stuff!!! Its not like the NCAA is neive to this type of thing with the Big Ten Network issues. BD

Cats score with 6 minutes left 4-3 Irish up BD

Irish kill of UNH PP. 10 minutes left. And they score. This is going to be an upset special. BD

That must be correct. Gametracker has it at 32 - 16. Clarkson has dominated most of the action throughout. If they didn't have penalties JBSU would have maybe half that many shots. BD

Clarkson scores on a nice backhand top shelf over the blocker. 15:02 left in JBSUs season. BD

Best one yet!!!! BD

They need to cut the close ups of Norton. Its a little rough at that distance. Hope it is not on HD!! BD

Not sure if they are better or is JBSU has even realized there is a game today. You would think they would show up with some fire since they have never won a single game. They are better than this in my opinion. BD

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!!!! JBSU 1 Clarkson 1 BD

NICE!! BD

Okay I'll bite.

Yes. I know most people will be looking at Bachman. I just think Goalies should have their own awards as the game has changed so much in the last 10 years. Goalie stats are so much better and it is not because they are that much better. The game is played differently and definitely officiated differently. Just MHO BD

Not a big suprise that Roe was involved. That kid has game and better win Rookie of year. BD

Off topic Did anyone notice that the East and NE regional sites are the same for years 2008 and 2010 as well as 2009 and 2011? I attached the link below: http://www.ncaa.com/icehockey-mens/default.aspx?id=9964 Seems odd that they would go back to the same sites so early and to do it two times makes no sense. And we can't get another one because we are "Hostile and Abusive." What a bunch of BS!!!! BD

Thought I would help you out with this link. http://blogs.berecruited.com/category/womens-college-rowing/ Probably help you get up to speed on this ever popular sport. BD
