      But he didn't take into account Jackies boys... Benedetto and Gravellese. No blow out, they'll keep it close.
      And he wasn't very nice to Harvard. They'll be playing BC in the Final.

        It hasn't taken me long to realize, everybody here knows a lot more than me about college hockey...

          So BU fans were chanting it to be sarcastic and ironic?

                  I'm surprised the northeastern university chapter of "fight for what's white" has failed to report this historic news!
                  Win. Thread over. Congrats sir.

                  There will be a blow out of sorts when talking about Jackie and his boys, it just won't happen on the ice. Just make sure that Jackie is wearing his knee pads because we don't want to see someone that old break a knee cap or two.

You simply can't appreciate a title as much if you don't suffer through a lot of failure beforehand. To put it another way, if MNS ever gets any, he'll appreciate the experience on a far deeper level than the rest of us did when it was our first time, simply because he's gone far longer and failed far more than we ever did.

                    Curious...and I apologize if this has been discussed (though I searched and didn't find any reference to it)...is there any national TV coverage for those of us outside the Boston area?

                      no, but just about any sports bar with a satellite dish can get NESN (as long as they have the sports package --- which most do)

                        Most Sports bars around the country will have NESN as part of their sports package which is kind of funny since college sports are the only thing they won't black out to the Non Boston market. (Bruins and Red Sox games are blacked out on NESN in non New England Markets).

                          Countdown is T minus 8 hours to the official start of the Hockey East Season, the focus of Jack Parker's 2013 recruiting campaign and the week long thought of the winner of the Harvard/NU game might actually be able to win this thing this year.

                            It will be interesting to see the crowd at tonight's game
                            Last year was announced as a sellout but anyone in attendance knows there were plenty of empty section upstairs
                            With demand down around college hockey and tickets avaiable in Minnesota for the frozen four and moderate sales in Manchester for the regoinal interest is down.
                            the finals promise to be even a tougher sell

                              A tad nervous about tonight. Probably shouldn't be as BC is 3-0 against BU and the game is at a neutral site on the big stage. Given BC's edge in experience, you'd think the BU players would be nervous--which I think they will be. How will they handle the pressure situation? We've seen BU beat BC in the Beanpot before after losing all three Hockey East meetings and we've seen inferior BU teams beat BC in the Pot as well. I expect BU to be jumpy, but also exhibit an us against the world mentality and leave it all on the ice. Will that be enough? As long as BC is ready to go, I don't think so.

                                That has to do with tv exclusivity of pro sports (ie need to buy the DirecTv package out of area to see non-national games).
