I couldn't agree more Chuck.  I've grown up in Minnesota and watched many
Gopher hockey games on MSC through the years.  If you're a Gopher fan, you
love the coverage and the announcers.  For those who are not, it is
ridiculously one-sided coverage.  I don't understand how MSC can call
itself "Midwest Sports Channel" when the only college team it covers
are the Gophers.  There are 4 other WCHA teams within 5 hours of the
Twin Cities, but they get no coverage at all.  I would love a network
that would show a wide variety of WCHA games.
