None of them are on ESPN2, which will instead air Sports Science, Competitive Cheerleading, and Dance Competitions from 12:30 pm to 5:30 pm, followed by a Roberto Clemente documentary (best suited for ESPN Classic) and Mexican League soccer.

But isn't part of the issue that there just aren't that many people who care about college hockey? It wouldn't surprise me at all the more people watch competitive cheerleading and Mexican soccer pulls in better ratings. I'm psyched for the Yale North Dakota game today, but I can't imagine how low that game will rate.

St. Cloud putting it on ND, 5-1 with under eight minutes left.

Norm Siebern · Mar 30, 2013

And it is final. St. Cloud State beats the Irish 5 to 1. Wow.

Philip Jeff Frye · Mar 30, 2013

Yale dodges a bullet early as a goal is waived off.

I'm glad about the outcome, but any time it takes refs 5+ minutes to reverse a call, how can the evidence be "indisputable"?

Philip Jeff Frye · Mar 30, 2013

No doubt about the next one as ND takes a 1-0 lead. Can Yale come back?

Philip Jeff Frye · Mar 30, 2013

Yale dominated large parts of the second period, created a lot of scoring chances, but ended up with nothing to show for it. Not sure they're going to be able to maintain this energy level.

Norm Siebern · Mar 30, 2013

End of second period, ND still holds the 1-0 lead. Sioux had a tremendous flurry at end of the period, yet Yale's Miller had a last second chance that Saunders made a stellar glove save on for ND.

Very entertaining period.

Yale ties it!

Holy crap, Yale's gonna win this thing.

ForceAtHome · Mar 30, 2013

Yale up 2-1!

Philip Jeff Frye · Mar 30, 2013

Unbelievable!

kenneycb · Mar 30, 2013

Great point blank save by the Yale goalie with about 3:30 left.

And great D by the ND guy on the mini-break by Agostino. That's always an absurdly difficult play for dmen to time correctly and forwards can usually just get the outside-in move done with ease and go on in alone.

ForceAtHome · Mar 30, 2013

Yale is Frozen Four bound! (barring a ridiculous collapse)

Rasputin · Mar 30, 2013

Yale scores...3-1...two and a half minutes left.

kenneycb · Mar 30, 2013

Yale goal on a odd man rush with the ND dman pinching.

Unless Yale has some bastardized affiliation with Miami, I think they're safe. That game still pisses me off.

Edit: Christ Grimaldi is a midget.

Norm Siebern · Mar 30, 2013

Holy crap. 2:00 from the frozen four.

ForceAtHome · Mar 30, 2013

Calgary's famous Agostino makes it 4-1. Game.

kenneycb · Mar 30, 2013

Game. Blouses.

Dan to Theo to Ben · Mar 30, 2013

Where's the Canisius game on?

EDIT: Thanks, too obvious, lol.

ajml · Mar 30, 2013

Stuck at the in laws who don't get ESPN U. Anyway to stream the UNH game?

Philip Jeff Frye · Mar 30, 2013

Absolutely unbelievable. What a crazy season for Yale. Humiliated in Atlantic City last week, in the Frozen Four this week. See ya in Pittsburgh!

Norm Siebern · Mar 30, 2013

Good for them. Congrats to the Eli.

Suck it WCHA.

Dan to Theo to Ben · Mar 30, 2013

Connor Jones STUFFED by Capobianco. Cansius holds to 2-1 lea midway through the 2nd

kenneycb · Mar 30, 2013

Barry Melrose calling the game. Hooray. O/U on amount of players he knows on either team? 5?

Amazing. Just 2 of the 6 WCHA teams in the field of 16 won their opener, and only St. Cloud has a chance to reach the Frozen Four.

Rasputin · Mar 30, 2013

Canisius gets another...3-1

Dan to Theo to Ben · Mar 30, 2013

What a goal by Gibbons.

mabrowndog · Mar 30, 2013

Quinnipiac is beyond screwed after that phenomenal goal by Kyle Gibbons. Kid worked his ass off for it.

Still plenty of time (15:00), but the Bobcats have sucked ass this year when trailing after 2.

jsinger121 · Mar 30, 2013

We are screwed. Typical Rand Pecknold team playing down to their competition.

Norm Siebern · Mar 30, 2013

What is it with 4 seed vs 1 seed this year? Usually you can count on one upset, but this many?

Especially considering that Canisius had just killed off a pp wth only two shots taken.

jsinger121 · Mar 30, 2013

Peca scores. QU trails 3-2 now

mabrowndog · Mar 30, 2013

Perhaps I wrote QU's obit a tad too soon. Peca with his 12th makes it 3-2.

mabrowndog · Mar 30, 2013

Wow. Tie game.

Rasputin · Mar 30, 2013

And we're tied...sigh.

Dan to Theo to Ben · Mar 30, 2013

tie game

at this pace, it'll be 6-3 Quins

mabrowndog · Mar 30, 2013

What an unbelievable move by Peca. Almost scores the lead goal, and draws the penalty.

kenneycb · Mar 30, 2013

That was a horrible rebound by the goalie.

jsinger121 · Mar 30, 2013

4-3 QU. Unbelievable comeback

mabrowndog · Mar 30, 2013

Oh man. QU leads with 5:32 left. Bui with another great move for the score.

kenneycb · Mar 30, 2013

Really? That just seemed like a harmless backhand and a god awful rebound on a soft shot right to the slot. My offensively-challenged ass could've finished that.

ForceAtHome · Mar 30, 2013

Is anyone having a better month relative to expectations than Kevin Bui?

Edit to add: 1 goal all regular season. In his last four games he had the Game 3 OT series winning goal against Cornell, a goal and assist against Yale in the third place game, and the GWG against Canisius in the NCAA tournament.

Put another way, Bui had four goals in four years. He has had three huge goals in his last four games.

Rasputin · Mar 30, 2013

Jesus, UNH and UML still scoreless.
