Mark Your Calendars: Providence College vs. Boston College

[Freeway]

Mark your calendars!

Providence College (home of Flames prospects Mark Jankowski and Jon Gillies) will face Boston College (home of Flames prospects Johnny Gaudreau and Bill Arnold) THREE TIMES during the 2012-13 Hockey East regular season.

They will face each other on Friday, December 7 (in Providence), Friday, March 1 (in Boston) and Saturday, March 2 (in Providence).

And that's presuming they don't face each other in the playoffs, which could easily happen.

Nice detective work, Freeway! Good time to travel in that area!

Is there any way to watch it online? Legally of course.

i'd like to know too, best bet is probably the ESPNU website assuming that game is televised, it wasn't blacked out during the NCAA championship game.

Unfortunately I think radio feeds are probably what we will be stuck with.

I get CBSSports on Bell TV. They show a lot of BC hockey games.

You're mensch, Freeway.

There will be ways to watch the games. Might not be able to discuss how, but you should have no problems.

Didn't know where to post this but NBC is carrying 16 NCAA games this year.

The NBC Sports Group will air 16 live college hockey games this season on the NBC Sports Network, including four from the Hockey East tournament (one quarterfinal, both semifinals and the championship final).

Yeah, I have CBS sports. The schedule jschick88 is referring to is NBC sports.

Larsson plays here no?

Stupid acronyms.

[GreenLantern]

I will be adding that channel for Feb I guess, thanks jschick.

So any chance those Providence vs. Boston College games will be watchable for us?

i am at work and the net is painfully slow here so I don't want to check, but on the Providence website their schedule it shows which games are on TV

[GreenLantern]

2/3 games on the website have the TV icon beside them:

December 7th Boston College @ Providence, 7:00 P.M. local time
March 13th Boston College @ Providence, 7:00 P.M. local time

Both appear to be on a network called 'CoxNE'..


CBS Sports seems to carry quite a few of the games for these teams individually though.. which is a channel available to us.

[GreenLantern]

So I did some more digging... found some dates here to keep an eye on:

Nov. 30
7:30 p.m. Boston College vs. Boston University (NBCSN)

Dec. 1
7:30 p.m. Boston University vs. Boston College (NBCSN)

Feb. 10
4 p.m.Providence vs. New Hampshire (CBSSN)


Feb. 24
4 p.m.Boston College vs. Merrimack (CBSSN)


According to this article:


http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/2012/9/2...ncaa-2012-2013


Cross referenced here:


http://insidecollegehockey.com/1Sche...hedules_tv.htm


And here:


http://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/tvsked.php


So it would appear as though we can watch some Flames prospects on national television.. now this is national in the states, I am wondering what kind of coverage we will get of this up in Canada. I wonder if they will play these NBC Sports Net games on the main channel we all have, or if we have to add an alternate channel?

[GreenLantern]

Boston College

at



Boston University

Day: Friday
Date: Nov. 30, 2012
Location: Boston, Mass.
Time: 7:30 p.m. ET

Coverage

TV: NBC Sports Network
Radio: 98.5 The Sports Hub

Hrm so for Sasktel Max, it doesn't appear as though I have a NBCSN channel, I do however have the option to add the CBS Sports channel which would work for these two games:

Feb. 10
4 p.m.Providence vs. New Hampshire (CBSSN)


Feb. 24
4 p.m.Boston College vs. Merrimack (CBSSN)

Anyone else have any luck with their providers?

[Vulcan]

I punched in a Calgary postal code for NBC Sports Network and what I got back appears to be for big dish satellite. Satellite provider 4DTV at Channel W5287 and C-Band at Channel G7-21. Even if you have a big dish these are probably subscription channels as from what I understand there isn't much free stuff left on the big dish other than religious programming.

[gargamel]

I'll be at the game in Providence next week rocking my new Gaudreaubey Baker shirt. I'll cheer for Jankowski too, but, as a BC alum, I hope to see Gillies get lit up.

[MissTeeks]

Uh oh, first tilt might be short one Flames prospect:

Torie Peterson ‏@ToriePeterson

As per @MarkDivver, Mark Jankowski is questionable for Friday's tilt with Boston College. Sore hip.
