Why would this harm the relationship with the team? He'd be reporting something that is public information.

Bubbs said in the presser on Tuesday that UND would be "very, very close to a full lineup" on Friday. My guess is JBD and Mash in, Senden out.

It was Joe Finley.

Do you actually believe he's doing this? Schloss has never shown to be one to seek attention. My guess... He's having a little fun with the UND faithful.

Nope, like siouxforce19 said, ESPN3 is only a streaming service for those that have cable package, as far as I know. Correct

I do feel bad for those that don't have ESPN3, but I absolutely love it.

Had a buddy suggest that this was just a rouse by CHN to get UND Twitter into a tizzy hahaha. Brilliant.

Sounds about right for media, these days. The race to be first greatly outweighs the race to be correct. I hope he feels embarrassed.

A very large chunk of the team apparently got COVID in the summer. So, *knock wood* I think we're ok.

Maybe not in the long run, but eyes are more important than anything. Bucci brings eyes to college hockey.

I'm not speaking about the ins and outs of the game as it's clear that Bucci isn't that guy, I'm talking exposure. Dude brings up college hockey on Twitter all the time and poo poo it all you want, that is incredibly helpful.

I don't disagree as I think ESPN can and should do better. Sorry that's happening to you, man. Sucks. Still in general, I think ESPN is better for growth of college hockey.

I guess I'm not sure, but do more people have the local Fox Sports or ESPN channels? Speaking of the current kerfuffle with FSN and the Wild, Wolves, Twins, my guess is more people have ESPN. On the plus, with ESPN getting the NHL back, I'd think we'll have better talent on the air moving forward. LOVE that Starman is color man for our regional. Everyone hates on Bucci and I get it, he's a clown, but that dude is a big time advocate for college hockey and we need that at ESPN to keep growing our game.

AIC isn't exactly what I'd call a big-time draw for ESPN. Do I like it? Absolutely not. Do I get it? I do.

Sweet! Thanks Jim!

CHN added theirs today. It's in a banner on top of their site.

Pretty please?

Is SiouxSports still doing one? Thought I'd see the banner across the today. Saw one on USCHO.com, but not on CHN. I thought they usually done one, too. Anyone got leads on contests?

This AIC team has more NCAA tournament experience than ours. Make no mistake, our boys will be ready to go.

Plus, we're playing AIC. It's definitely a ratings thing.

That's gotta drop Mankato off the one line, right? Moving Wisconsin up. That also likely changes who's coming to Fargo.

I would think so, yes.

Yep! Pinto, Weatherby, Massimo Rizzo, and Ryder Donovan agree

OMG that was PHENOMENAL. Weatherby or Pinto as replacements for Gornall . Great stuff. Lesson learned once again that we all should remember how good Bubbs, Jacks and squad are at their jobs hahaha

I just can't get Army in. They lost to Long Island and Bentley this year. I just can't do it.
