I'm glad I checked in here because mgoblue.com says that the game is on NBC Sports Network which I get on my cable and they are showing pro hockey tonight. I don't get the regional networks so I will be relegated to the computer. Tomorrow's game is on NBCSN.

Morgan got assigned to 3rd line, and Becker is the extra forward, swapping spots from last game.

Some extended pressure, not resulting in a goal.

We really need to score first against ND.

I don't mind the ND announcers. Much less painful than watching their home football games. Definitely homers but they are informative and much less annoying than Gopher announcers.
