ECAC Poll:
 
> 3. RPI            116
 
RPI had an *outstanding* post-season run, coming within a late
third-period collapse of the ECAC title game, and they featured
several strong freshmen, but ranking them third is excessive.
 
Hopefully, if RPI improves from 10th last year to, say, .500, their
fans won't be disappointed.
 
> 7. Vermont         73
 
I think this is about the lowest UVM will finish, assuming Soucy isn't
injured. Anybody feels lucky to get out of Burlington with a win.
 
> 9. Cornell         62
 
Again, about the lowest they will finish, which isn't to say it's all
that improbable. After being criticized for never finishing first in
a three-year period with arguably the best team in the ECAC
(89-91), do you think McCutcheon will be praised for finishing
anywhere but last with arguably the least-talented and, inarguably,
the least-experienced team in the ECAC?
 
And how many other hockey teams at any level in the past 50 years
carried exactly 1 (one) goalie?!
