Latest pairwise rankings

And, it appears that both sites are now showing the same numbers all the way through. Who remembers which site had it right? I think that uscho didn't change, but I'm sure about that.

CHN had it correct. For whatever reason, I printed USCHO Pairwise yesterday, and their numbers changed this morning.

Not only that, the premise of this entire post has basically flipped. Yeah, the B1G still has 6 top-20, but is in danger of having 2 of those miss the NCAA's. The NCHC, meanwhile, has more than doubled the number of top-20 teams, and is looking like they will get a solid 3, possibly the same 4 as the B1G ends up with. I feel like a certain someone mentioned it was too early to gloat...

Big Ten is getting a minimum of 4 teams in, with about a 50% chance of getting a 5th. The NCHC has a minimum of 2, with the odds of getting a 3rd around 80%. The NCHC getting a 4th team in is about as likely as the Big Ten getting 6, it will probably take an upset in the conference tournament to make that happen.

Is anybody out there stubborn enough to insist the NCHC is still better than the Big Ten?

We will see what this year has to offer. The B1G has always talked a good game and everyone crows about their draft pick darlings. Come the NCAA's... all we hear is excuses.

If you're implying what I think you're implying... I would like to take this opportunity to point out the fact that the team that ends up winning the Frozen Four does not automatically come from the best conference. Case in point : Yale, Union, and Providence in 2013, 2014, and 2015.

Lol. No one cares. Win the Natty or S T F U

Why would you choose 6 as your cutoff point? The top 8 are the #1 and #2 seeds in the NCAA Tournament. That's a natural cutoff point. And half those teams are Big Ten teams.

That giant whooshing sound is The Point as you miss it completely.

Or maybe they were the best conferences, it simply took time for the cream to rise. In 2013 it was an all-ECAC final. In 2015 it was all-Hockey East. Sounds like some pretty dang good conferences to me.
 
Is there a good calculator out there these days? Want to see what the UAA games do to us if they were reversed.

In the end HEA looks like it killed itself on out of conference... again.

CHN has a simulator where you can enter both past and future games. If you go to ratings on the navigation bar, there should be three tabs just above actual standings. If you go to customize, you can filter by team and change past results.
 
LOL Now CHN has Stonehill added onto their RPI page, with LIU's victory over them tonight counting on LIU's record, so now CHN's RPI is incorrect (although it doesn't, as of now, affect the order in the top 20) and USCHO's is, AFAIK, correct. Can't make this **** up.

Really? It works fine for me on my laptop...I have noticed the mobile site doesn't work though.

I get UMass-Lowell in 10th if they won both games in regulation against UAA instead of losing them. Interestingly, it also drops my Tigers from 14th to 17th because not only would UMass-Lowell pass them, but UConn and Michigan State as well (both teams UML has played against)
