I like that these games will be televised online. Has anyone used the service before, is it good?

What is the cost? If it's just the team tape, it probably isn't worth it, but if it's an actual broadcast, I might be in!

What!?! Zero points isn't an option? :wink:

As for the game video... if the MAC football package is any indication, it's a bit of a crapshoot. It's serviceable, but sometimes it was much better than others, and I think it depends on the school.

What's actually interesting is I put 0 as an option but it didn't take.

Er.....there's no damn way we get swept!

No way we get swept! BG will need to get off the bus ready to play. The lakers have been tough on us @ the Soo in recent years. They lead in wins @ Taffy Abel but this weekend IMO we will shrink that divide. Travelling to the UP for the games Hold the nest @ WBB help them win over ou
GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!BG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BS __ BG __

its sure to be a physical game.
I am wondering if Eno will get the weekend or if he will get the first start followed by sprat the second night.
One has to figure that since sprat had both last weekend because he played so hot on friday...had to be a hard decision esp since having had them split all season thus far.

I'd like to see Jimmy play both. I think he has proven himself to be a number 1 goalie. As for Lake State. Anything but a sweep is a failure. They are winless in conference. They did have a heck of a schedule thus far NDx2,UMx2,MSUx4. They split with Wayne State and only tied UWO (Western Ontario.) They of corse have the big lug Nathan Perkovich who is a good player as is Dan Eves. Aside from that they don't have much. Losing the best tender in the conference in Jeff Jakaitis hurt the Lakers badly. Brian Mahoney-Wilson will be a stud, but right now he is just too raw and doesn't have a strong defencive crop in front of him. Let's hope we can light the lamp early and often.
Dave Ellett is a hero. A Bowling Green Falcon and a Former Jet and Maple Leaf. What more can a Winnipegger ask for.

Mitch and I watched one game, and if memory serves correctly, the feed was from one stationary camera and overall, the quality was pretty good. For the price - circa $5.00 - I probably will view in again this weekend.

It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

I saw the $9.95 price earlier this week when it was first posted on the website, but when I checked a few minutes ago, it said $6.

Right now it says $6. That's a great deal to be able to watch the game!! I'll watch Friday, not sure if I will be home soon enough to watch much of it on Saturday (Son's JV game in Sylvania). I know they play at 5:05 on Saturday and he plays at 4, so we'll see...

GO ICERS!!!
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEP THE LAKERS!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing against jimmy, but I see Nick as better goaltender. sure right now he is a smidge behind sprat overall, but he is way of where sprat was he came, and all the splits have only helped. i would like to see the split continue, and would favor giving Eno a shot at a whole series. I think is more mentally fit to handle sequential games.
