It appears the Union - Providence game is not being broadcast anywhere yet. ESPN 2, where it's supposed to be, is still showing a tennis match as of 3:09 PM, and the ESPN site isn't streaming it. It looks like the tennis match is about over, though.

[Trotsky]

Bodie from Carr, Union 1-0.

Doubly nice, since we never have to face either of them again.

[andyw2100]

They just joined the game in progress, over four minutes in, with Union already up 1-0.

"What a glove save by Connor Stevens!"

ESPN.  Always at its best.

[jkahn]

They just joined the game in progress, over four minutes in, with Union already up 1-0.

Because the tennis was running late, they did have the hockey game on ESPN News until the next faceoff after ESPN2 picked it up.

[Rita]

Don't tune in late to the games. BC up 1-0 and the game isn't even 2 minutes old.

Union now up 2-0.

[andyw2100]

Providence scored with about five minutes to go in the third. Now 2-1 Union with 4:05 left in the third.

[Larry72]

And Union counterpunches yet again and wins 3-1.

[Trotsky]

BC up 6-1 through 2 periods.  Gaudreau is 3-3-6 +5.

[Jim Hyla]

BC up 6-1 through 2 periods.  Gaudreau is 3-3-6 +5.

Since he's hardly played lately, do you think he wants to be sure the Hobey voters haven't forgotten him?

I see Denver was happy to oblige.

Robert Morris' Cory Wydo (30 goals this year) just clanged the post, but Minnesota is sleep-walking through that game 3-0.

Edit: in the time it took to type that, make it 4-0.

Edit: in the time it took to type that, Wydo scores his 31st to make it 4-1, but then Wydo gets a bizarre penalty off the next faceoff when he kicks his skate back at the Minny guy he is lined up with (?!)

[Jordan 04]

Congrats to the Dutchmen! If they can somehow muster 2 more wins, that would be very good for Cornell.

BC up 6-1 through 2 periods.  Gaudreau is 3-3-6 +5.

Wouldn't you think that Denver's coach, Jim Montgomery, would know how to stop Gaudreau since he coached him in Dubuque?

No!
