Cornell vs. Colorado College Pregame (NOT a game thread)

[Beeeej]

It looks like you can listen to tonight's game for free via Colorado College:

For tomorrow, Maine and Princeton are already covered on the now-a-year-out-of-date "Free Net Audio" link to your right.

I might be remembering incorrectly, but I believe last year the cost was a few dollars more per game than the typical $7 or $8 for the regular season games.

How's the quality?  Worth the cost if it's around $10?

[Rosey]

The quality is decent: it looks like Redcast from past years, meaning that it's unwatchable full-screen because of the MPEG artifacts, but it is smooth and the audio is excellent.

What I love is how their website asserts that you need Windows and IE to watch, and refuses to let you in if you're using the wrong OS or browser: in reality, you don't need to be running that crap.  If you're using Linux and Firefox, make sure you have the user agent switcher extension, switch it to IE on b2tv's site, and then when you click on the link to watch the video choose some decent video player (I'm using mplayer) to view the stream.

Princeton ties it up on a 5 minute major to Maine. Glad they made productive use of that time. I'm just following along from the uscho game thread.

5-4 Maine after 2

[andyw2100]

Now 6-4 Maine, with about 15 minutes to play in the third.

Others may have realized this, but if you're planning on paying the $10 to watch the Cornell game at 7:30, that $10 also covers the Maine vs. Princeton game. (I only discovered this a few minutes ago myself.)

[judy]

So Maine has a guy named Swallow and a guy named House. Where is "Glass" when we need him? Are we sure this is Maine and not the old Dartmouth team?

Heading to OT.

Heading to OT.

A win in 5-minute OT is a win for season W-L-T records. Else it's a tie in the record books and a shootout determines who advances.
