The Nittany Lion men’s hockey team will have at least 11 games televised, including eight to a national audience on either BTN, ESPNU or ESPNews, during the 2014-15 season, the Big Ten Conference announced this week.
The Big Ten Network will broadcast Penn State conference home matchups against Wisconsin (Feb. 6) and Minnesota (Feb. 20), while airing road contests at Michigan State (Feb. 14) and Ohio State (Feb. 27).
ESPNU will carry two Penn State clashes this season with ESPNews picking up the third and final contest on the family of networks. Both ESPNU broadcasts will take place at home with the Nittany Lions facing Michigan State on Jan. 17 and Minnesota on Feb. 21. ESPNews will broadcast the Nittany Lions’ first road game at Wisconsin Dec. 5.
Three more games will be featured on FOX Sports Regional Networks. FOX Sports Detroit will broadcast the Nittany Lions’ Feb. 21 road game against Michigan, as well as their Feb. 13 matchup at Michigan State. The Penn State-Minnesota meeting on Saturday, March 14 will air on FOX Sports North+.
BTN also will provide live coverage of all five games from the 2015 Big Ten Men’s Ice Hockey Tournament, scheduled for March 19-21 at Detroit’s Joe Louis Arena.
