      They would have been #1 if I had a vote before yesterday’s win, a tie or a win today only reaffirms it more.

            No. 1 in my book. Nice third period comeback against a top-10 team on the road. 13-0-1 with a 2-0-1 record vs. top-10 ranked teams.

            Should be in good shape to roll for the rest of January and then they have to go to River Falls and then close the regular season with a home and home vs. Hamline. Three huge games for the Tommies.

              Never is a top western team #1 in my book. Weaker opponents. Weaker schedule. No comparison to the top eastern teams. Not until they find a way to break through and finally win the one game that means anything.

                Generally fair assessment given D3 women’s hockey history. However, I feel the Western teams have closed the gap in recent years. Hamline, Adrian, River Falls and Gustavus Adolphus have all picked up wins over top Eastern teams in the last 3-4 years.

                Undefeated is undefeated in this case. If Plattsburgh or elmira had one loss, I’m still voting for the Eastern team. But, with two I’m giving the nod to the unbeaten team.

                  There is a reason that Adrian is coming east two weekends every year now.

                  That said, I agree with Derek here. St. Thomas is #1 to me until someone beats them.

                    Gotta play the cream of the crop to be the best in the end. Adrian also has very friendly travel budget to be able to fund these trips. Something not all Division III schools have the luxury to do even if they wanted to.

                          I understand all of that. My point was is that if that was available out west, Adrian wouldn't be coming east twice a year.

                            You may remember that St. Thomas was not allowed by their school to compete in playoffs last season when they tied for the conference regular season championship and would have been given the top seed in the conference tournament. Was a solid team that tied Hamline 3-3 and then and beat Hamline 3-0 in their regular season finale. Hamline was averaging 5 or more goals a game and had roughly 3 of the top 4 point leaders in DIII hockey. A team that eventually took 3rd nationally. The previous season, St. Thomas team struggled in the first half of the season and was the 5 seed in the conference tournament. St. Thomas won the conference tournament to earn a NCAA tournament bid. They were at the time about a 14 rank in the country, and was seeded 8, behind Gustavus, a team that St. Thomas has played 3 times that season. 2 wins and 1 tie as the result. Gustavus was given a higher seed as I guess the NCAA folks figured the St. Thomas turn around was just luck. That being the background, St. Thomas traveled to play #1 Plattsburgh. A game where the final score was 4-2 Plattsburgh. Shots 34-31, edge to Plattsburgh. In viewing the game, it was very competitive. I know that the east has dominated the championship game, but there are some very good teams in the West. Just not enough travel money to make the East West games happen. Adrian is halfway there compared to most of the West teams. Would like to see a NCAA tournament where the East coast seeds have to do the travel. Understand that it has to be earned, but home or familiar rink advantage is just another edge to the East.

                              Suffolk surprises me. Decent team, not the strongest schedule. Endicott/Norwich 2-2, going to OT.

                                this potentially could be the year that St. Thomas gets to host for the West. If it is East the next two years, it has to go West the following year.
