Goon Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 Interesting to note that TSN will broadcast 3 USA games. Canadians will probably see the US team more than the US. I would highly recommend getting NHL Center Ice then? Its only 149.00 for the year. They let you break it up in to three payments. Last night I got to watch Zach's goal and two assits as well as Hale's fight. Quote
sprig Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 The TSN broadband stream is the best I've seen, we'll see if the quality remains when lots of US hockey fans log on. Quote
sagard Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 The TSN broadband stream is the best I've seen, we'll see if the quality remains when lots of US hockey fans log on. It does look awesome, but outside of the US/Canada game I doubt there will more stress on their system than normal. Quote

If I remember correctly from last year, when it was played in Vancouver, NHL Center Ice still only broadcasted 3 games or so. Granted, that's 3 games more than what any other channel in the states was willing to broadcast, but I do wish they'd simply appease us hockey fans and have a couple channels designated solely for that tournament, or at least the big games that include the U.S., Canada, and Russia. I guess I'm just greedy and want to see all the games! Quote

I was pretty sure it was TSN but I could be wrong. Quote
CoteauRinkRat Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 I watched the USA games on Fox Sports Net last year. Quote
AZSIOUX Posted December 19, 2006 Author Posted December 19, 2006 WJT HOME http://www.worldjuniors2007.com/index_eng.htm TSA CANADA HOME http://tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/ toews mention http://tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/news_story/?...canadian_hockey Another veteran, Jonathan Toews, is also a candidate to be the country's top centre. The North Dakota sophomore has looked strong to open selection camp whether he had Angelo Esposito and Steve Downie, or John Tavares and Dan Bertram, on his wings.

Sioux_Hab-it Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Toews set up Canada's first goal and scored the 5th goal in a 5-2 exhibition win over Finland. The game could have been a blow out but the Finns have Rask in nets again this season. http://www.hockeycanada.ca/index.cfm/ci_id...ame_id/1093.htm Quote
sagard Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 US beats the Czechs. 6-3. Zatkoff plays and stops 36 of 39. Hope the boys can figure out how to defend a little better when the games start to matter. Quote
SIOUXELEVENS Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Sounds like it was a defensive battle. You don't have the box score do you? Quote

redwing77 Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 Sounds like it was a defensive battle. You don't have the box score do you? Not to be nitpicky, but how can a contest in which 9 goals total are scored be deemed a "defensive battle" unless you mean they fought to actually play defense? Quote

redwing77 Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 http://www.usahockey.com/2007wjc/main_site..._usacze_122006/ Seriously though: Team USA got called for nearly twice as many penalties that Czech did. Some were dumb (delay of game penalties, IMO, are dumb penalties regardless). It's odd to read the box score/recap and see a UMN player (Carmen) tipping a shot by a UND player (Chorney) into the net. On the other hand, it looks like Chorney simply donned a new uniform and kept up the same game. He really is a bright spot this year for the Sioux. Quote
PCM Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 It's odd to read the box score/recap and see a UMN player (Carmen) tipping a shot by a UND player (Chorney) into the net. Why? Does the University of Minnesota have a policy against Gopher players touching pucks shot by Fighting Sioux players? Quote
redwing77 Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 Why? Does the University of Minnesota have a policy against Gopher players touching pucks shot by Fighting Sioux players? No, because it is hockey. If Chorney and Carmen played any other sport, then there could be problems. Quote
Slap Shot Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 No, because it is hockey. If Chorney and Carmen played any other sport, then there could be problems. Yeah, no TD passes from a UND QB to a UM WR in the Senior Bowl, although we'd have to get a player into the thing first. Quote
redwing77 Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 Yeah, no TD passes from a UND QB to a UM WR in the Senior Bowl, although we'd have to get a player into the thing first. That assumes that the UMN WR could actually hold onto the ball. Quote
hockeydog Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 That assumes that the UMN WR could actually hold onto the ball. Toews finds his "Sioux Scoring" touch in Euorpe!!! HELSINKI, Finland (CP) - Karl Alzner and Steve Downie each had a goal and two assists to lead Canada's world junior hockey team to a 5-2 win over Finland in an exhibition game Wednesday. Brad Marchand, Jonathan Toews and Andrew Cogliano each added a goal and an assist for the Canadians, who played a solid all-around game in their exhibition opener. Quote
Paul Doe Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 For those close to the border CJOB 680 in Winnipeg will broadcast games from the tournament. I couldn't fin a schedule on their website but I assume it will be all the Canadian games. If you can't see the Canada vs USA game at least you can listen. Also TSN will have a tournament pregame show Christmas Eve. Quote
driscol Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 CNN.SI top players to watch at WJ - Toews included Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Team USA wins their second exhibition game, 5-3 against Switzerland. No Sioux players involved in the scoring. Here's the link to the summary. USA/Switzerland Recap Article also says that most U.S. games will be aired on NHL Center Ice, however, I've checked the guide for Dish Network, and there is no indication at this time as to what channel the games will be on.

That should be really good news. I guy should be able to see them because they will be on early mid day I would assume. Quote
