Does anyone know if the B2 Newtworks coverage would be of the TV feed or something more akin to what we got in the QFs?
I am trying to figure out if I need to leave the office and find a sports bar.

In Buffalo, Time Warner 13 will be showing the semifinals live; the final will be shown on tape delay on Sunday afternoon.

That said, I hope to make it to Albany on Saturday. We'll see.

For anyone with Cablevision, the NHL Network is available as part of a sports tier, for $5.95 a month. This package also includes three Fox Sports College stations which are picking up two or three of the other conference tournament games. Unfortunately the NCAAs switch to ESPNU, which is not available on Cablevision.
Cablevision has told me that I can order the Sports Pak and cancel at anytime and get the service prorated, so if I wanted to, I could watch the semifinal for 20 cents.

What are the ratings numbers for replaying an ECAC title game on a sunday vs the NCAA b-ball games? why bother showing it all really.
if they want to tape delay why not that night so people might be tempted to avoid score for a few hrs rather than most of a day?

On Saturday's, the NHL Network (USA) has been staying with HNIC all the way through the post-game show (Afterhours) which ends at ~ 1:30 am. Yes, I would stay up and watch the ECAC replay then. I'm not sure why they wouldn't do 2 airings, since it is tape-delayed.
BTW, Scott Oakes Afterhours co-host is now Marc Crawford; Kelly Hrudey is now in studio. So instead of the "how I scored off Kelly Hrudey" segment, it seems now the player guests explain how they "helped" Crawford become a TV analyst .
As much as I love watching HNIC, this is one weekend when I wished NHLN (USA) would do a JIP after airing the ECAC final live.

I am with you there. I wish we could have some other channel available on satellite (e.g., SNY) show it live.

I also posted this on the game thread. If you get TimeWarner check your TV listings. In TWCNY land it's being rebroadcast Wed. 3/25 at 6 PM. I'm sure it will have other times as well. Since they have a 3 hour slot for it they will probably get rid of some in between period crap as well.jts15

B2 or another option to see tonight's game live (DC)?
Posted by: FaithfulForever (---.washdc.fios.verizon.net)

Can you get tonight's game on B2? I looked at their link for ECAC Men's Hockey Tournament, and it shows nothing listed for tonight. I also clicked on the Hockey link and scanned through all games for tonight. I'm not currently a B2 subscriber, but I don't think that matters.
Does anyone know any way to view tonight's game live in the DC area? I'm willing to watch it online, at a sports bar, anything!
Also, if anyone wants to let NHL Network know that we wanted to see the ECAC Final live, drop them some feedback at this link, [www.nhlnetwork.com]. Maybe if they hear from enough people, they'll consider doing things differently in the future.
LGR!

For those without visual possiblities, WRPI, www.wrpi.org broadcasted the games on their usual free stream last night. So if you're near a computer, you can get slightly more live updates than hitting refresh all the time on eLynah.

That's ridiculous. I ordered the whole ECAC Tournament for $20 yesterday. I cannot fathom that just being for the 2 semifinals. Maybe the games aren't listed yet because they did not yet know the matchups so couldn't put them up in advance.

how can they charge $20 for a single game? that would be nuts. and if so the ECAC should get a load of complaints for allowing it.

It should be less (I think their going rate is ~$6.95 per game. However, an ECAC tournament pass (for all the games) was $20, so about $5 per game.

It's up on the B2 site now www.b2tv.com
It looks like you can still only purchase the entire tournament for $20. Does anyone have experience with this and know if before the game there will be an option to purchase the championship game individually?

I emailed the following to b2:
I see only a $20 pass for tonight's Cornell-Yale game. I purchased all 3 Cornell ECAC tournament quarterfinal games last weekend from b2 at $8 each, so I've already spent $24 with you on the tournament. Is there a single game fee? If not, I strongly suggest you add one, as people are very unlikely to purchase tonight for $20 for one game only.

Got this response from b2, from which it seems like there will be an $8 option posted later:
To purchase an event at the pay-per-view price of $8, please wait until 10 minutes before the game starts to click on the "Watch Live Now" blue link. Then enter your credit card information and you will be directed to the game.
