AZSIOUX Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Big time match up for the first ever NCHC series. Could be the start of a nice rivalry! Friday night game is on CBSports. I'm assuming they have a webcast for sat Quote
siouxweet Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 if we give miami as many pp's as we did vermont this weekend it will be a long weekend for our favorite squad Quote
Wilbur Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 This series will show us where UND is defensively. Miami is a lot like Yale. Puck pressure, and they buzz around the offensive end. I'm thinking Simpson will be out there whenever Riley Barber's unit is. They need to take away that line's time and space or we could be talking about an early season sweep on the road. Quote

I'm assuming they have a webcast for sat Miami uses neulion but the webcast for Saturday is not shown on Miami's site. Maybe it will show up. Or maybe webcasts are part of the CBSPorts/NCHC double header weekend blacking out everything for both nights? Someone around here understands that mess of a contract better than I. Quote

Miami's webcast will be available in HD on Saturday. Its a good quality webcast. Quote

Thanks, there's almost no Miami hockey listed on the live events section of the web site. Can you give us a link to where this is? Can't see it listed in the live events when you open the player: http://www.muredhawk...DB_OEM_ID=26100 Quote
geaux_sioux Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 So how good is Miami? I know they're ranked higher than us but the rankings don't mean anything this early. Quote
sioux rube Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Fully expect Miami to be ranked #1 after tomorrows poll is out. They crushed Ohio St. and with Lowell losing to Sacred Heart I gotta believe they will be sitting on top. No question the boys need to stay out of the sin bin if they want a chance. The so called experts picked them to win the NCHC for a reason. Great early test for the squad. I would be happy with a split. Quote
#MACtion Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 any know of the miamie fan board? http://www.miamihawk...pic.php?t=58654 ^^ Miami fan board... also this link is for highlights vs Ohio State and also shows what our webcast will look like. Its not free, you will have to pay $8 or something like that. The highlights are shown in SD, but there will be a clearer "HD" feed for the live webcast Saturday. They show SD or HD feed for those with slower internet connections. Check later in the week for link to the game Saturday, it will be there. Quote
#MACtion Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 So how good is Miami? I know they're ranked higher than us but the rankings don't mean anything this early. Most of last year's team is back and we've scored 20 goals in 3 games to start this season. Quote
#MACtion Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 kind of a slow board over there Everybody more interested in bashing the football team right now. Football coach fired a week ago after 0-5 start and everybody putting their 2 cents in on who the next coach should be. Quote
gfhockey Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 hey macation we are in the same position almost...except our higher ups don't have the kahunas to can our coach. Quote
sprig Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Is the Miami web cast free? It's neulion, the short term cost is 10.95/month (no listed 24 hour pass). Would guess you have to cancel it after a month if you don't want to be auto charged for the second month. Looks like they canl buy just the hockey access, for less than the full year of all sports streamed. http://www.muredhawk...DB_OEM_ID=26100 Quote
siouxweet Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 I think this series is going to look very different from the series that takes place in feb. this will be an experience series for the boys. I'm not sure this squad is ready yet to take on the big boys out there. I'm hoping for a split. Quote
Laker Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Miami definitely has some offensive playmakers. This may expose some of the inexperience we have on defense. I'm curious to see what our defensive lineup will look like on Friday. Barring injury or suspension, I think it's likely that Simpson and Schmaltz will play every game. That leaves four spots (assuming Hakstol dresses six defensemen). Like many other users, I wasn't very impressed with Mattson this past weekend. However, I think his experience gives him the advantage over the freshmen early in the season. With Mattson in, that leaves three spots. Of the four freshmen, I was most impressed with Stecher this past weekend. He made some obvious mistakes, but I thought he was aggressive and played well overall. I think he earned himself a spot. I also noticed LaDue more on Saturday night. He was more aggressive with the puck and did some good work on the PK. So I think he earned himself a spot on Friday as well. I think the sixth D spot is a toss-up right now between Ausmus and Thompson. I think both players showed some positive things this weekend. Quote
as15 Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 I think Stecher and LaDue are head and shoulders above Ausmus and Thompson, right now. I also thought Ausmus looked better in his game this weekend, than Thompson did, but its hard to judge only on their first games. Quote
siouxnami Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Against Miami on the road I suspect that Panz and Ausmus will be in as there is mor eof a need for defensive d-men. Quote
Laker Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Against Miami on the road I suspect that Panz and Ausmus will be in as there is mor eof a need for defensive d-men. It wouldn't surprise me if Panzarella was in there, but he had some issues on Friday night. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 It wouldn't surprise me if Panzarella was in there, but he had some issues on Friday night. Agree. He is better than he played Friday and is really our only true physical presence back there. I'd sit Thompson and Mattson but the latter won't happen. Quote
MafiaMan Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 any know of the miamie fan board? I think this has already been posted but let's get some SiouxSports.com fans registered over there and liven things up a bit! http://www.miamihawktalk.com Quote
BSUbeaveralum Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Is there a schedule for how many CBSSN games the Sioux will play this year? just trying to plan when to add/drop it on the cable package. Quote
