INCH Power Rankings
There were some
huge wins last week, particularly a pair of overtime victories at
Boston College (by New Hampshire) and at Maine (by the Black Bears,
over New Hampshire). Our new No. 1 team didn't win either of those
games – in fact, Colorado College didn't win at all –
but they haven't lost since Oct. 12. The Tigers are back in action
this weekend with a pair of non-conference games, while a series
with rival Denver looms Dec. 6-7.
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.

Next games
between UNH and BC will close out the regular season. They've
got a lot to live up to. |

Think the
Sioux are all offense? NoDak's allowed a total of six goals
in its last five games. |

Five-game
unbeaten streak includes ties at Michigan Tech and Alaska Anchorage. |

like a win over Harvard to get

close. |
