National High School Broadcast Network

NFHS Network has free archived broadcasts of most of the other top HS Hockey states 2015 Tournaments (AK, CO, CT, IL, MA, ME, MI, NH, OH, RI, VT, WI)

A quick glance will reassure anyone of the relative quality of Minnesota's Tournament atmosphere and quality of play.

You may also come to appreciate Prep 45's coverage of the Minnesota Tournament.

Many of us remember back to when WCCO 4, KSTP 5, or even KMSP 9 did the broadcasts with fondness...but when compared to the state HS Hockey coverage in other states we still have it pretty good.

Of those I peeked at, only the Wisconsin Final has decent production value: good cameras, multiple angles.

They really should not have shown the wide angle "crowd" shot for that game as it is embarrassing how few people are there. It is tempting to freeze frame and count them, seriously.

Only the championship was actually on television in Wisconsin, the other games were $treamed.
