The College Hockey Discussion List Poll for February 8, 1995:
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.
Michigan maintains its hold on first place, slightly increasing its lead
over runner-up Maine. Not a lot of shuffling this week, though Princeton's
weekend sweep of Harvard and Brown returned the Tigers to the top 15
(nudging out RPI).

Here is the HOCKEY-L - media poll composite. Only the Eastern media polls
(WMEB, Troy Record) appeared this week, and it's probably no surprise that
they both ranked Maine #1 (though not by much). UNH still hunts for
respect, though the Troy Record voters seem to have taken more notice of the
Wildcats this week.
