Congrats Gopher Women. I watched the 2nd and 3rd period on the internete yesterday and was impressed with how well they skated and moved the puck. Now lets see if we can double up with the men.

Congratulations to the U of M Women's Hockey Team! What a season! All capped off with the National Championship win. I wish I only could have seen it. My guess, many people are thinking the same way. My question is how can we have high school sports on TV (which is great), but we cannot not have the National Championship Hockey Game on TV? Not a very good decision by the NCAA and/or the University. Congratulations once again!

Incredible run. Awesome. Something we will probably never see again.

It was the NCAA, not the U. NCAA had set the rights with on-line only. the Big 10 network tried to get rights to carry the final but it was not possible contractually.

Glad the NCAA puts the student athletes before the almighty dollar!

Thanks for the info. As for the NCAA, you can't fix stupid!
