It used to be that I could just select my table from Excel and paste it in here. Now it doesn't do the formatting. I am sure someone has a solution, but I have not investigated that far yet.
Click to expand...
I haven't used it, but there is an "insert table" icon at the end of the list of icons on the top when you write a messages. It's after the quote icon.

Rainman must know how to it because he uses tables to show his standings, and it was messed up immediately after the software change.
 
With just 1 week left, here is where we stand:

The Field House Model is leading and College Hockey Insider is a good bit behind in second place.

Our first human, non-article contestant is sshablak.

Major difficulties appear to be:

Colgate overperforming predictions. Our average had them finishing around 6th place.
Cornell underperforming predictions. Our average had them at 1.6 and a 6th position is really throwing numbers off.
SLU underperforming predictions. Our average had them at 7.3 with a current 11th place position.
Union overperforming predictions. Our average had them at 7.4 with a current position of 4th.
Brown overperforming predictions. Our average had them at 11.0 with a current position of 8th.

since I type them out as I cannot figure out how to just copy my table over, I must have missed it....

@iowabasedtraveler ...you are right in between Bronco Hockey Fan and TBRW at 76. Sorry about that. I will figure out the new table format eventually.
 
And this year's winner of the ECAC Pick the Standings 2024-2025 is:

The Field House Model

I wasn't going to give it to someone not actively on the site and contributing each week, but then I remembered I always credit the Coaches or the Media when they win it.

So, next year's contest title will be:

ECAC Pick the Standings 2025-26 ( The Field House Model Edition)

Thanks to everyone who played.

And sorry, sshablak! I think you came in second for the ECAC Weekly Picks? So, honorable mention for @sshablak ! They had a lot of being a bridesmaid and not a bride this year.

Final Average109.7
 
Reviewing the final position of all the teams and the average placement we had for them in our contest, we can see where some of the inflated numbers came from:

TeamContest AVGActual FINAL SpotOver or Underperformed
Brown10.968Overperformed by 2.96 positions
Clarkson4.222Overperformed by 2.22 positions
Colgate6.043Overperformed by 3.04 positions
Cornell1.576Underperformed by 4.43 positions
Dartmouth4.135Underperformed by 0.87 positions
Harvard5.437Underperformed by 1.57 positions
Princeton10.049Overperformed by 1.04 positions
Quinnipiac1.611Overperformed by 0.61 positions
RPI8.7010Underperformed by 1.30 positions
SLU7.3012Underperformed by 4.70 positions
Union7.394Overperformed by 3.39 positions
Yale10.6111Underperformed by 0.39 positions


I would love to know your opinions and thoughts on these final positions. Especially the more extreme over or under performers highlighted in green and red!

Were those in green excelling due to surprising play from a new incoming star? Or did the "just seem to get all the bounces" this year?

Were those in red lacking a key player due to injury? Or "they just didn't seem to gel"?

LOOKING FORWARD TO THE PLAYOFFS!!!
