  • Constructive Feedback from a Weekly Listener

    While I look forward to listening to this podcast each week, and hearing prospective on many of the games that I watch over the weekend, I have to disagree with you this week. The rivalry game between Minnesota and Wisconsin was well hyped by Wisconsin on social media, as are all of their games. Fans consistently interact with Wisconsin social media (and attend games - home and away) at a high level. Games are not free as you mentioned in other schools, sell out in minutes, resale for $100 over ... more

  • Show is about WCHA

    While I appreciate the effort by USCHO to have a show about NCAA division 1 women’s hockey, it may make sense to rename the show. The majority of each episode is focused on WCHA. If you are hoping to have a show for all of women’s ice hockey perhaps bring in folks to interview or figure out another way to have the show reflect the breadth of the full league. We listen every week and feel increasingly surprised on the bias of coverage on teams/players from WCHA. It seems the hosts only watch WCHA... more
