Re: D3 18-19 season
Will polls come out mid day today or wait until after today's games? Thoughts?

If it's like last year, USCHO won't wait but D3hockey.com will.

Re: D3 18-19 season
Norwich scores in OT to win a back and forth contest with Adrian 5-4. Kelley Madden scored the first and winning goals for Norwich. Harshman of Adrian with a goal and two assists in the loss.
Plattsburgh - Elmira up next. Early in the game, the announcers on NSN said Elmira had bus trouble and might be delayed, but if there was an update on that situation I've missed it.
EDIT: Hearing that there's about a 15 minute delay to the start of Plattsburgh vs Elmira.

#5 Elmira takes down Plattsburgh 4-1 (ENG) to win the East-West Classic, taking down the #3 and #2 teams in the country (all rankings were coming into the tourney).
The USCHO poll came out today, which means yesterday's results were considered but today's weren't.
Rnk Team [First Place Votes] Last Poll
1 Plattsburgh [11] 2
2 Adrian [1] 1
3 Elmira 5
4 St. Thomas [3] 7
5 Norwich 3
6 Wisconsin-River Falls 4
7 Middlebury 6
8 Hamline 8
9 Gustavus Adolphus 10
10 Wisconsin-Eau Claire 9
Others receiving votes: Williams 9
St. Thomas could be the beneficiary here, but odds are Elmira is going to be the new #1 there and USCHO next week.
Long term, I think this weekend puts St. Thomas in a position to where they might be in the driver's seat for top seed and host (if they are able to and bid for it). They are undefeated and lead the SOS metric (per KRACH). They have a tough schedule though...

Re: D3 18-19 season
Tough day at the office for the Cards. They weren't as "crisp" today as they were yesterday. Faceoffs and passing was not good by and large in this tilt. That said, hats off to Elmira. They earned it.

Impressive performance all weekend by Elmira. Certainly earned the title. Thought we saw 4 good hockey games all weekend. Certainly muddied the waters a bit.
I’d guess St. Thomas would have to be No. 1 followed by Elmira now.
Re: D3 18-19 season
I don't think Elmira's ascension is guaranteed. Plattburgh also owns a 4-1 win over Elmira earlier this year so that's a wash. Seems kind of a round robin at the top. Plattsburgh has lost to Elmira and Adrian. Adrian has lost to Plattsburgh and Wisc-River Falls. St. Thomas' schedule to date has been pretty light (save for one game against Wisc-River Falls). I would think if they sweep GAC this weekend, it would be their turn at #1 (I assume a first for the program?) Interesting vote coming next week...

Or today if you're d3hockey.com and waited for the tournament with four of the top five teams in the country to play out...

Re: D3 18-19 season
Little surprised St. Thomas only got one first place vote but definitely not surprised to see Elmira's surge.

It really had to be Elmira number one...the old adage "What have you done for me lately?" St Thomas schedule appears to be holding back the first place votes. Just my thoughts.
Re: D3 18-19 season
Elmira played like they were the #1 in two games against top teams. St. Thomas will surge if they continue their success, as they have yet to play Gustavus 1/11-12, UWRF 2/6 and Hamline 2/15-16. This weekend's results have rewarded us with a great race to the finals with many teams in the mix. Imagine the fun come bracket time.

Big weekend for the Tommies. I’m going to try and watch some of Saturday’s game after I get back from the Norwich women’s game.
Re: D3 18-19 season
St. Thomas' record is a full two games better than anyone else. I agree the schedule is not as crisp as the eastern teams (plus Adrian) that keep playing that round robin. Plattsburgh, Elmira, Norwich, and Adrian have each played at least 4 games against top 5 opponents already, but unbeaten deserved a shot at the top after everyone ahead of them lost this weekend.

Re: D3 18-19 season
Let's talk after the home and home with Gustavus; two Tommies wins will make them #1 in next week's polls.
