I've always heard that the tournament champs were the champs, while the
regular season champs got the modifier. After all, the tournament champs
always got the automatic bid, while the regular season champs just started
getting one this year. Any of you types who work for the leagues know what
the rule is? Or is there one?

Correction: Michigan won the CCHA championship. LSSU won the
postseason tournament. That makes LSSU the CCHA Tournament champions,
not the CCHA champions. It also is much less impressive to me.
Winning the regular season means you have to play excellent hockey
throughout the season. Winning the postseason tournament means you
have to get good/lucky for a very short period of time.
