        You're expecting logic from a league whose tiebreaker system
can result in an unresolvable loop?  (And I don't think we ever
learned exactly how to break a three-or-more-way tie.)
 
        Perhaps the ECAC web page <http://hockey.ecac.com/> has an
email address to which such questions can be addressed.
