Hockey East and NBC Sports Network announced the 2013-14 schedule and a two-year extension to their television pact. That is in addition to the NBC Sports Network contract with Notre Dame.

NBC Sports Network will televise five games involving Hockey East teams as part of the deal with the conference.

Dave Strader and Dave Goucher will split the play-by-play duties while former Boston College defenseman Ken Hodge will be the color analyst.

The first scheduled telecast will be October 25 when UMass-Amherst travels to the University of Maine for a game at 8 p.m. Here's the entire Hockey East schedule on NBC Sports Network, outside of the to-be-announced Notre Dame games.

Friday, October 25 UMass-Amherst at Maine 8 p.m.
Friday, November 1 Northeastern at Boston College 8 p.m.
Friday, November 22 North Dakota at Boston University 7:30 p.m.
Friday, January 31 Boston University at UMass-Amherst 7:30 p.m.
