The Michigan Wolverines take on North Dakota tonight at 8:30 on ESPN2 for a spot in the NCAA Championship Ice Hockey game. I may be the only one who cares, but I’m excited.
Hockey in general takes a backseat to the other major sports at the professional level, let alone college hockey. The games aren’t regularly televised and there is only small followings for only the most proud and established programs. While these games are not high-grossing events, there is something to be said about the experience of the game. Examples being the raucous student section at Michigan ’s Yost Ice Arena or Minnesota
When women’s college basketball gets regularly televised on ESPN and its affiliates and college hockey does not, there is something wrong with our world.
Oh well. I’ll still be watching.
