45 isn't covering the AA third place game?

Apparently not. I wasn’t real happy about coughing up $11 to stream two games, but it is what it is. Reruns of Seinfeld and Friends must be more important to them.

45 has never covered the 3rd place games.

Apparently 14 games in four days is enough. Fans who don't agree can always go see the other games in person.

Wow, can’t believe in the state of hockey these games aren’t on 45.

Well to be fair the only time 45 is relevant is during the state hockey and basketball championships.

Agreed. I am working, but my family is there watching Edina destroy Centennial 11-0

Usually tough to get up for games like this, but the Edina seniors sure did. Mackay goes out with a good performance. He was very good the second half of the season.

Congratulations on a great season.

Yikes. Edina was clearly not happy about that loss last night. I am curious to see the highlights from this game as I’m sure there were a few pretty goals mixed in there.

Nearly all were pretty.

It's called the 2-class tournament. Obviously they can't have coverage of every game with games happening at the same time.

45 NEVER covers the third place game: this is nothing new

For whatever little bit it’s worth for the A people ....I’m a AA guy that knows a lot more AA guys than A guys and it seems like the “AA guys would rather watch AA consolation games than A semi final games” vibe coming off here is being way oversold. Just my two cents.
