Poll comment:

   College Hockey America coaches, in a pre-season poll, picked Bemidji
   State 1st and Findlay last.  Currently Findlay is 1st and Bemidji
   State is last.  Go figure.

HEAL ranking comments:

   HEAL and other rankings seem to start settling down about this time
   of year.  Much of that is because of fewer games played each week,
   but some is due to the more substantial data base of results.

   This is the first distributed HEAL ranking of the season.

   Findlay, as an "emerging D-I" team, is not eligible for this year's
   NCAA tournament and so has been omitted from the HEAL ranking.
