year after year we struggle to see any kind of ECAC hockey on tv.. Even seeing the finals and semi's is iffy..  you have to wonder in this world with Cornell/Harv/Prin etc and billions of dollars in endowments that they cant get a couple playoff games on tv and rid of the B2 nightmare.

you have MSG/SNY with alot of free programming space and several have alternate channels as well.  its under 10K to produce a game is it just a lack of marketing skills that makes it so hard to get done?

this weekend the 4 home schools didnt even manage 3K in the seats so its not like tv would be taking money from schools.

From the cornellbigred.com report on tonight's game:  "The semifinal games will be played at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Friday, March 21, at the Times Union Center in Albany, N.Y., and will be televised live on Time Warner Sports and the NHL Network with tape-delay on SportsNet New York.

Apparently, the NHL Network will have live coverage of the tourney.

Time Warner Sports, CN8, and SNY will carry the finals live, as well; NHL will carry them on tape-delay.
