I love the information and the articles that the app provides, especially in an (in my opinion) underserved market. The one QoL nuisance that I always run into though is a notification for an article. These never direct me to the article itself, and when I start looking for the article I want to read I sometimes can’t even find it. If you could please fix this to have notifications direct a reader directly to an article, that would be amazing. Thanks for an amazing app otherwise! It really keeps me connected to college hockey where I otherwise wouldn’t be.

It’s a nice app when I’m watching my team at home or away games and I want to see score updates from around the same conference, but updates are FAR from real time, and on occasion don’t come through until later periods or even not at. It’s nice to see the RPI/PWR rankings, but being able to see the USCHO Poll would be great. Box Scores aren’t part of the free version, which is insane, especially considering it costs $2.99, but if you pay I guess you also get extended stats info, and a different view of scores from all over D1? tl;dr If you want inconsistent, slow and occasionally incorrect push notifications for one or a few teams, the free version is pretty alright. Can’t see any reason for wasting money on the premium version other than the box score but even then.

I have used this app since it 1st came out. Every year I purchase the full functionality with game stats and details. This yr, for some reason, it has had many issues around performance and just up to date game data. Empty scores days after games complete, or even scores the day of the game. I find myself having to just go to Hockey East Online to get accurate game scores and details. I’m hoping the issue have just been related to the Covid issues with games and the app will be the outstanding app I’ve used for years prior.
