The College Hockey Championship Belt Part III

Re: The College Hockey Championship Belt Part III

I vote no second Alternative since it would unified with the first alternate automatically.
 
Re: The College Hockey Championship Belt Part III

This seems unprecented. BGSU defeated tOSU in another shootout. Should we award BGSU a second Alternate Belt and perhaps tOSU one also? It seems quite unnecessary, so i won't do that, but if anyone has an opinion, please chime in.

Funny how UMD has no belts and yet has gone on this great run.
 
Re: The College Hockey Championship Belt Part III

In my opinion Bowling Green should be awarded "The Belt". I agree that belts should won out right but; since the CCHA uses the shoot out to determine who gets more points, Bowling Green and Ohio are both members of the CCHA, and Bowling Green won both shoot outs they deserve "The Belt" outright.
 
Re: The College Hockey Championship Belt Part III

I agree. If I understand the rules correctly, BGSU would get an alternate belt for beating Ohio St. in a shootout and retain the original alternate belt for not losing their game, at which point the alternates would be unified.

Out of curiosity, what would happen if OSU had won the second game in a shootout? Would OSU just take the belt outright, or would they take their own alternate to the alternate, which would then be unified with The Belt (which would mean nothing changed)?

However, the NCAA ignores the shootout result for PWR purposes. What your saying would make sense for the CCHA Belt, however in the original discussions several years ago, the opinion was to ignore shootout results for everything and award Alternate belts so those who believe the shootouts should count could also see where those Belts were.

The second alternative. The alternate^2 would immediately be unified with The Belt.

Is Harvard playing a doubleheader on 2/3/12? They are defending belts against Qpac and Merrimack.

What if the shootout were to become nationally mandated... would we lose the alternate belts (aside from if the team with the belt doesn't make the playoffs)?

IMO, let's cross that bridge when we come to it, although if you or others have an opinion, please post it.
 
Re: The College Hockey Championship Belt Part III

No, keep the alternates if it becomes nationally mandated. It's an abortion of a practice and many fans would agree that it's an all-staresque skills competition rather than a true result.
