St. Lawrence Skating Saints opened their season with a non-league game against their arch rivals, Clarkson Golden Knights. The game was televised nationally on ESPNU. Of course, I don't get ESPNU. Both SLU and CU have joined the B2 network for webcasts. For some reason the game wasn't available on B2. So, I was left with audio only. Thank goodness for audio. I hope the problem with video and B2 gets solved by next week. I want to be watching the games although I don't like the idea of having to pay to watch.
SLU wins 3-2. Two of the Saints goals came off the faceoff, This is remarkable in part because CU was winning most of the faceoffs. Penalties and shots were pretty much even.
I am glad to have hockey back in season.
