UND at SCSU - Visiting the Concrete Center

[brianvf]

Big road NCHC series coming up against SCSU.
UND is up to #7 in the NPI while SCSU is at #14.

Always hard to sweep on the road, then factor in their big sheet and their potent PP.
SCSU has one of the best PP in the nation, currently at 31.3%.
Have to slow down Burnevik...6 of his 11 goals are on the PP.

Pretty big drop off in points after their top 3 of Gross, Burnevik, and Hall (18, 17, 16 points)...the next player has 8 points.

Eventually, SCSU will have smaller rink dimensions.

Glad that SCSU is getting some much needed improvements.  One year UND was there there was a power outage before the game and the game barely happened because of soft ice.  Before then the school wouldn't buy a generator for the facility as it wasn't in the budget.  The NCHC called soon after and the Herb got its generator!

MidCo has picked this series up the past new years.  Looks like we are out of luck this year now that they have Yawnastana’s home games on their TV schedule.

For those of you in the Twin Cities area that have Xfinity, Friday's game will be shown on the CW channel (808 in the SW Suburbs).

Yeah, there are a few games they used to pick up on the road that they haven’t lately.  Even the game in Bemidji they are trying to squeeze the extra bucks for the Midco plus.  Wonder if next time the contract comes up if UND thinks they can have better promotion elsewhere.  If they aren’t adding anything else to their package even with other sports, there are plenty of other streaming services to choose from.

The midco plus is a ccha thing. If anything midco can't just pull that feed it put it on cable. Unless those Bemidji games are televised locally but they are not.

While we are on the topic, Midco has corporatized the f out of Through these Doors since they took over producing it. Used to be 15-20 minute episodes but now it’s 5 minutes max most weeks. They’re lacking compared to the other content put out by schools

I'd argue this year's TTD episodes have been the best(in production & content) in quite a few years.  Jax seems to be giving them more access than Bubs, which makes a world of difference.
