No. I meant the CHA. I said it last season, and I have seen nothing so far to change my mind: College Hockey America is a better conference than the MAAC.

The CHA has scheduled the "Big 4" conferences more aggressively than the MAAC.
The CHA has more wins against the "Big 4" than the MAAC. A CHA team earned an
at-large NCAA berth, and got to the quarter-finals, a MAAC team has not made it. The MAAC won't win an at-large berth at least until tourney expansion.
CHA

One of the reasons Army moved to the MAAC was that the MAAC was a conference
they could win. The CHA was not. I rest my case.
