Maybe it is on your end. I usually have a really nice HD picture. Just not tonight.

I was noticing the webcast seemed a bit lower quality tonight, too.

When did they change it to seeding the top 5? I thought it was top 4, then the matchups were random draw. Also, is the tournament a week earlier than normal? I thought it always lined up being the week before the first round the WCHA conference tournament.

There'd still be pressure on both teams on Saturday, though. If SCSU loses Friday and the Sioux win, but then Saturday is the opposite, we still tie for league champion (but yes, we get the #1 seed in the tournament). I want the trophy outright.

Yea, their webcast was pretty bad. Once I finally got it to load (after missing the first couple minutes), it worked alright for a while, but then was constantly freezing and buffering. Then at one point totally quit and didn't come back for a long time. Easy to understand with a free webcast, but definitely not something I paid $8 for.

What? Couldn't afford the $8 webcast?

This interview is painful. Over three minutes into the period now, time to cut him off and start calling the game again.

Anybody else having horrible buffering and video freezing issues? I don't have issues with any other webcasts, including UND's Neulion service, but this is horrible.

Totally disagree about Jim. I can't stand him.

Finally got the webcast loading.

When did Moorhead recruit for football? They sure didn't seem to when I was there, considering their records every year.

Charter is in the Twin Cities. Charter is my cable provider here in Lakeville, if I didn't have DirecTV.

I don't know how they get away with calling that slashing on JL.

3:26 left. Canada scores. USA leads 2-1

5:27 left in the 3rd

It wouldn't have to be amateurs, just anybody who isn't in the NHL. The amateur rule was an IOC rule. As soon as they started allowing professionals, things changed. This wouldn't be a change back to "no professionals", just that the NHL wouldn't allow their players to go. I would hope the NHLPA would fight against the change. The players love being there. Hopefully they love it enough to really fight for it.

Switzerland's first women's hockey medal, and first hockey medal since 1948.

I would have much preferred 6am. I have a 1:30 appointment that I can't get out of. Which means I'll miss the entire 3rd period.

11am is what they just showed on NBCSN

They said earlier that he asked to be on a more offensive line rather than defensive.

Try the nbc live extra app. That's what I've been using with pretty good success.

The lot over by Clifford/Odegard/Streibel always had more than enough parking back in 01-05

I assumed he wanted to play a hockey game in a spreadsheet.

He called it that once, over two months ago. Is that joke ever going to die?
