Yippee, BSN (Boston Sports Network) finally loaded up their truck and drove an hour up to NH to show a non-Boston HE school play. Wonders will never cease. Every year it is the same old steady diet of BU, BC and Northeastern and little or no coverage of anyone else.
Let's look at the planned coverage for this year. They started off with showing back to back BU and Northeastern games (one not on the schedule below, that I clipped from the Hockey East Online site).
By my count that makes the breakdown of teams covered from HE as follows:
BU 3NE 3BC 2NH 2ME 1UML 1PC 1UMA 1Mer 0 Trips to HE Schools BU 2NE 2UML 1NH 1PC 1ME 0Mer 0UMA 0BC 0 Trips outside of Boston Mer 0ME 0
Sure seems like some bias towards the Boston based teams to me. IMHO Hockey East needs to either excert some preasure on Fox Sports to cover the league better or find another sports channel that will. We can be assured that BSN will stay at home in Beantown for their wildcard games on 2-14, 2-21 and 3-1. We wouldn't want them to get lost trying to get on a highway to head out of the city :)
