dinners, grinners, spinners, thinners, skinners......I hate poems and I always hated Lit classes in HS and college. But you'd never know from my AWA mean Gene Okerlund Bucky interview, eh?

Winners!

You were supposed to let my response percolate a little longer than 33.555874 seconds. Haha and LOL.

Half of the USCHO 1st, 2nd, 3rd and all rookie team players were WCHA players, Idalski USCHO coach of the year (Watts a joke he wasn't the league coach of the year), KK co-rookie of the year, Jaques gets the PK, 3 of the 4 FF teams WCHA and the champ were too. Heck of a season for the the old WCHA.

Women's Division I Hockey Inter-Conference Records: 2022-2023

vs.	CHA	ECAC	Hockey East	NEWHA	WCHA	OOC Record
CHA	—	8-32-0 (.200)	3-7-2 (.333)	13-2-0 (.867)	1-17-0 (.056)	25-58-2 (.306)
ECAC	32-8-0 (.800)	—	18-18-0 (.500)	13-4-1 (.750)	4-12-2 (.278)	67-42-3 (.612)
Hockey East	7-3-2 (.667)	18-18-0 (.500)	—	10-2-0 (.833)	0-5-0 (.000)	35-28-2 (.554)
NEWHA	2-13-0 (.133)	4-13-1 (.250)	2-10-0 (.167)	—	1-9-0 (.100)	9-45-1 (.173)
WCHA	17-1-0 (.944)	12-4-2 (.722)	5-0-0 (1.000)	9-1-0 (.900)	—	43-6-2 (.863)

This is a link to the page where I found these inter-conference records pasted above. They seemed useful for looking back at the season, and you may have checked them out a lot before. They did speak to the level of competition in the WCHA conference in 2022-23.

As a fan of Yale, I have felt hopeful, seeing the top teams from the ECAC, for instance, compete pretty often with some of your top teams. Even as 4-12-2 was the overall ECAC 2022-23 inter-conference record vs. the WCHA, those games can be fun to watch. (:

I still wonder how many years the WCHA as we know it has left? Michigan is exploring a woman's program and if it happens that makes 5 teams. With the Big Ten poaching Pac schools that makes the possibility of an additional woman's team or teams extremely high which would give the Big Ten the magic 6 number.
Of course this is speculation on my part but I feel it's a distance possibility. Time will tell.

Wow what a great negative information. It makes a guy wonder about how the computer rankings didn't have the WCHA the top 4.

I still wonder why some super rich person from a non b16 hockey school hasn't dumped a pile of cash on somebody's desk and said start women's team. I guess they would rather use the money on gold plated silverware for the football team's training table instead.

But a b16 woman's hockey conference would be bad for woman's hockey so I am ok with the way it is now.
