Look! No votes for Minnesota this time.
 
Thank the gods of hockey that these same pollsters don't seed the
tournament (not all of them, anyway). Otherwise, I'd probably have to shoot
myself.
 
 
Michigan loses to Ferris State yet climbs from 5 to 4.
 
Wisconsin splits a pair with St. Cloud. 'Sconnie jumps from 10 to 9.
Meanwhile, St. Cloud, ranked #8 just last week (Feb 23rd), disappears from
the top 10.
 
Yale ties a .500 Dartmouth and loses to a Vermont squad that's 7 games
under .500 -- both teams are tied for 8th in the ECAC with losing records.
And they only slip from six to seven?
 
Northeastern SWEEPS #6 (previously #4) New Hampshire and goes from
"receiving" 6 votes to 15 votes. What happens if if they win Hockey East?
Might they be ranked (dare I say it)... in the top 10?
 
And still no first-place votes for BU? What does it take, people?
 
:-)

(go BU)
 
Since BU dropped football, does that mean Silber fumbled?
Real grass at Nickerson for the *real* football! Yippee!
