I have a question about this.  Colorado College recently lost to Denver in
a holiday tournament.  I understand that this was not an *official* game
and doesn't count toward the WCHA season standings.  But is it really
honest to give credence to this "record"?  Does it matter to anyone that
CC did, in fact, lose to another WCHA team while setting an undefeated
WCHA record?
 
This is in no way meant as a slam toward CC.  They have a remarkable team
with an equally remarkable season.  I'm just wondering if anyone else has
considered this.
