If your cable package is any good, you'll also be able to games at  
Michigan, Minnesota, the ECAC and Hockey East. I have DirecTV and am  
watching 2-3 games every Friday and Saturday in all four major  
conferences during the season. Hopefully, you also have Fox Sports.  
You'll also find great tournaments at the holidays, like the Great  
Lakes Invitational with three of the five Michigan teams (always  
Michigan and Michigan State, rotating in the other three), plus a top- 
level team from outside Michigan. And the level of excitement is as  
you experienced it every weekend in every venue. Minnesota didn't  
play as well Friday as they did Saturday, when they played more up to  
Gopher standards. Have fun.
