INCH Power Rankings
Teams in our
Power Rankings went 20-4-1 last week – with only one loss
to a team outside the list – which means either our rankings
were pretty accurate, or everybody played cupcakes. Let's call it
a little bit of both.
Take a look
at how the Inside College Hockey editors and staff think the contenders
stack up – and let
us know what you think. Send us your own Power Rankings, with
comments, and we just might publish them.
1. |
Boston
College |

Eagles
tie Notre Dame, failing to live up to the football team's standard.
Don't expect to hear that again this year. |

Pioneers
outshoot Wisconsin 70-39 on weekend, but have to battle to sweep
Badgers. |
3. |
North Dakota |

Who warned
the Sioux that New Haven was a violent place? Zach Parise (0-7—7
on weekend) leads team in southern ECAC swing. |
4. |
New Hampshire |
2 |
Wildcats
suffer first loss Saturday vs. BU after Friday's come-from-behind
win over Merrimack. |

about hats in Gopher-land since Doug Woog left. |

Wolverines
were bullies over the weekend, picking on cross-town high school
kids (from the NTDP). |
7. |
Cornell |

Red's for real. |

Friars
join Fighting Sioux as the lone unbeaten, untied teams who have
played more than one game. |

Miami |

High-flying
'Hawks in fight with Ferris, Notre Dame to be this year's surprise
in the CCHA. |
14. |

Wasn't
the football team ranked this high early in the season? Don't

Irish prove
they belong in the rankings with tie vs. BC. |
