This year the selection script at http://slack.net/hockey/ seems to be
bug-free (so far), but the score-parsing script was having trouble
handling the double-overtime results.  That's been fixed now, and it
turns out Clarkson has a remote chance of edging out UNH for the last
at-large bid.  One set of results which works is

   CO College def. Wisconsin
   CO College def. North Dakota
   Minnesota def. St Cloud
   CO College def. Minnesota
   St Cloud def. North Dakota
   Bowling Green def. Northern Mich
   Mich State def. Bowling Green
   NE-Omaha def. Michigan
   Mich State def. NE-Omaha
   Vermont def. Dartmouth
   Vermont def. St Lawrence
   Cornell def. Harvard
   Vermont def. Cornell
   St Lawrence def. Harvard
   Boston Coll def. Mass-Lowell
   Maine def. Providence
   Maine def. Boston Coll
   Mercyhurst def. Canisius
   Quinnipiac def. Iona
   Mercyhurst def. Quinnipiac

In that case, Clarkson beats UNH .5472 to .5471 in RPI, which swings
the comparison.
