The Pairwise Ranking is a system which attemps to mimic the method used by
the NCAA Selection Committee to determine participants for the NCAA
Division I men's hockey tournament. The PWR compares teams at or above
.500, judging them by five criteria: record against common opponents,
record in last 16 games, head to head competition, record against other
teams at or above .500, and the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI).
For each comparison won, a team receives one point. The final PWR ranking
is based on the number of points (comparisons) won against teams at or
above .500. Ties are settled by the RPI.
You can see the complete list of all the individual comparisons.
A more complete explanation of the workings of the PWR is also available
in our FAQ. There is also a FAQ available explaining the NCAA Tournament
selection process.
The PWR can be reformatted and redistributed by any media outlet or
person, provided USCHO's URL (http://www.uscollegehockey.com/) accompanies
the results.
Note: A team's record is based only on games against other Division I
hockey schools which are eligible for the NCAA Tournament. In particular,
only non-exhibition matchups between schools in the six major conferences
count towards a team's record as used in the RPI and PWR. Other games,
including contests against Canadian schools and tournament-ineligible D-I
programs, are not counted.
