I've just gotten off the phone with WABU TV68 and got the list of
games which they are going to televise.  It looks as though this is
the first year of at least a three year commitment, so BU fans should
be able to see plenty of hockey if they can't make it to Walter Brown,
or those away games in California or Minnesota.
 
  First, some interesting news {I can't recall hearing this before}:
According to TV68, ESPN2 will be covering both semi-finals and the
finals of the Beanpot.  This will be subject to blackout in the Boston
area, but still means a much greater audience for national coverage.
[Ironically, the Boston area is one of ESPN2's largest audiences,
since it is a on couple of cable outlets "family packages" up here.]
 
  Those three ESPN2 games are:
 
02/06/95   Beanpot Semifinal #1 -- BU vs. Northeastern          6PM
02/06/95   Beanpot Semifinal #2 -- Boston College vs. Harvard   ~9PM
02/13/95   Beanpot Final -- Game #1 Winner vs. Game #2 Winner   ~8PM
 
  Again, The semi-finals will be on NESN, and the final game will be
on either WABU(68) or WSBK(38).
 
 
Now for the WABU list of televised games:

       * = Exhibition game
ALL CAPS = Home games at Walter Brown Arena.
 
  As mentioned earlier, Dale Arnold and Mike Eruzione will be the
commentators for the BU TV68 games.  They may be adding more games
during the season, as they see how things develop/become available.
 
  I like that they have at least one game with each team in the league
covered.
 
 
  Thanks to the nice people at WABU for putting up with my questions and
having the patience to read off the list of games!  I hope that they
have a great season and continue this coverage for many years to come.
