    My thoughts would be to seed it as normal (including attendance swaps). The purpose of the simulation is to provide a "what if" the season hadn't been cancelled. Had the season continued as normal, the committee would have made swaps for attendance/travel purposes. To that end, my vote would be to seed as normal.
    “Seed as normal”- So, your turning the committee swaps over to someone on the east coast?

      I decided that I might as well do this. I do have a problem, namely that besides for the ECAC, I don't know who will play whom next weekend and on what day. So there are a lot of “next weekend”s without opponents and dates. I could assume that all semis are Friday and all leagues have best vs. worst in one game and the two middle teams in the other, but I am not sure, so feel free to add data.


      Belts before last weekend. Nothing changed after Friday because all of Friday’s games were game one of best-of-three series.

                      Let's beat that green team!

                        North Dakota fans have turned St. Paul into a sea of green! We will see which fanbase shows up best to the game at the X when the writeup comes along.

                            We just commuted 35 miles in an hour and 15 minutes, paid 50$ to park at the Fleet and are now partying at the team party in the pub across the street. Wearing beads, blue wig and working out how to smuggle my cowbells in because they have no idea that cowbells are required in a hockey game.

                            Ready to beat #notmy flagship Amherst!! GO Blue!
