The College Hockey Discussion List Poll for November 27, 1991:
Teams were given 15 points for a first-place vote, 14 for a second-place
vote, and so on down to 1 point for a fifteenth-place vote. Total first-
place votes are in parentheses.
Maine keeps rolling along, receiving all of the first-place votes this week.

Someone suggested (in a VERY long letter -- geez, Jim!) that I put together
a composite of this poll and the media polls as a comparison, so I thought
I'd give that a try this week. Note that the WMEB poll is also a Top 15
poll, while the WMPL and Albany Times-Union polls are Top 10. Just for fun,
I also included the unbelievably unofficial College Hockey Computer Rating's
"picks" for this week. Thanks to Kyle Aumell, Erik Biever, Keith Instone,
Wayne Smith, and Coach Ric Schafer for posting all of that stuff.

The WMEB poll ranked North Dakota #14.
It's interesting, and perhaps not too surprising, to note that the HOCKEY-L
poll has the same teams in its top ten that the other three polls do
(excluding TCHCR), and the positions are very similar.
