App doesn't list half the game on Android so I have to stream through the website whenever I want to watch on my phone. Sidearm must keep winning with lowball bids.

So drop Duluth, St. Cloud, and CC from our conference so you can watch game on TV? That is just dumb.
 

drop them bc they won't be able to compete money wise...plus they don't bring a lot of eyeballs for getting more money for your streaming rights...

lindenwood-st louis

tsu-nashville

unlv-vegas

Just get rid of nchc.tv and have all games stream on espn+. We don't need a few games to be televised nationally. It's a joke when you pay for a yearly subscription to watch your team but you can't on the few nights when it's on the CBS crap. Not to mention the low quality some of the schools put on. Nchc.tv is very overpriced for what you get. 

There were some issues during the tourney when a few games were not working on espn+ so that is a bit concerning though. 

You are just moving it from one platform to another. ESPN isn't coming in to produce the games, they just take the feed from wherever, so you'll still get the same quality that is on nchc.tv

but their "platform" (espn plus) is light years ahead of whatever the nchc.tv app is trying to do.......if you don't have a dedicated "cast" button are you even trying????????

And you think lindenwood and TSU would compete money wise? Lindenwood has a student population of 7,500 kids with a $200 million dollar endowment, while TSU has a student population of 8,200 students and a $91 million dollar endowment. neither of these schools is going to give you your "eyeballs" for more money in streaming rights.

what is the population of st louis and nashville again?

might be the reason why the numbers are lower than expected bc scsu is slowly going out of business and hyphen schools and directional schools usually mean inferiority

I'd take CC. You talk as if college hockey brings a lot of eyeballs and $$$ in the first place. It simply doesn't. Broadcasting college hockey isn't lucrative for ESPN/CBS like football or basketball.

the random person flipping thru the channels will straight up skip over cc v scsu from the bomb shelter on the mississippi (they would have no clue if this is d3 (cc) or d2 (scsu).....on the flip side if they saw a packed mullet with asu playing unlv (and instead of the word salad nchc hockey....the Western Athletic Conference rings a bell over the years) ....they might actually watch AND might actually become a fan of ncaa d1 hockey.....

What did NCHC make from NCHCTV and CBS? Don't know how many subscribers they have/had but I've spoken with a lot of fans from other schools and not a lot sign up for it (but thats just a small sample based off of who I've spoken with). I would suspect that CBS doesn't pay much to air the games, as they cover all the costs that goes into producing it.

What will NCHC make from ESPN? ESPN would probably charge NCHC to be on their app but the NCHC would control the ad revenue. ESPN is obviously a major network and would be able to dictate the terms (in their favor).

Your question, word for word.

The way you wrote it implies that I have to choose at this moment. At this moment, UNLV being a full fledge D1 program in hockey is just chatter.

UNLV can't even get people to watch a game for football or basketball! In what world will the random person flipping the tv, stop to watch a niche sport with UNLV in it?

goes without saying that nchc members would be full d1 hockey not acha or whatnot.....

unlv will be full d1 hockey in less than 5 years.

If ESPN is interested, as indicated by the original poster, I don't know why you wouldn't try to make that happen.  A co-worker who watches a lot of college basketball noted to me a while ago that Big Ten basketball games are hardly ever on ESPN anymore, so maybe the Big Ten has priced them out, and they are looking for cheaper content.  A brand name broadcaster like ESPN might want content on nights that are non-traditional to college hockey, which I wouldn't like.

Does the B1G have a deal with ESPN or is it just FOX?

just saying more random casual fan people would watch a unlv v asu game versus a cc v scsu game.....

AND you gotta start somewhere when it comes to getting your first fix of college hockey....could be a guy with a broken foot that says it's either the princess bridge again with the wife or asu v unlv.....easy choice
