As the 2019-20 season approaches, fans will be looking for viewing options to watch college hockey. Most of UND's game will be on some version of television or webcast.
With that said, not everyone likes to watch webcasts. Two seasons ago, I had to up my WIFI game at home to get better NCHC.TV coverage. Whenever I can, I watch the away games on DirecTV instead of NCHC.TV. As I've mentioned in the past, some of the member school's webcasts aren't up to snuff.
Today, we find out that Colorado College will have six of their games on AT&T network. One of those games is against league rival North Dakota.

Last week, the NCHC released its CBSSN schedule. The NCHC has a new two-year agreement with CBSSN. In a release from the league; For the seventh straight season, CBS Sports Network will serve as the premier national television partner of the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) with the network set to telecast 11 NCHC games during the second half of the upcoming 2019-20 season.
As part of a new two-year agreement between the NCHC and CBS Sports Network, the network will once again feature a package of regular-season games and coverage of the NCHC Frozen Faceoff. This season, one televised game will take place on each Friday night, plus one Saturday night, starting in mid-January leading up to the 2020 Frozen Faceoff. All regular-season games televised will be conference match-ups, with one originating from each NCHC member’s home arena.
Unfortunately, one viable TV option for watching UND hockey when they're on the road might have evaporated. The Pioneers might not be able to have their games on DirecTV or Dish Network. From our buddies at Lets Go DU -- According to Colorado Hockey Now, “The “carriage” contracts between Altitude TV and Denver and surrounding’s big three cable providers – DISH Network, Comcast/Xfinity and DirecTV – are expiring and the two sides are…not anywhere close to an agreement to re-up with each other.
