The College Hockey Discussion List Poll for December 21, 1994:
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.
With so few games being played, it's not surprising that there was little
change in the HOCKEY-L poll. Maine and Colorado College are still running
1-2, though the Tigers were able to close the gap. BU nudged Michigan out
of the #3 spot, and Bowling Green slid two places to #9.
Composite poll (15 responses):

A bit of a disagreement in the Eastern and Western regions, as Maine is #1
in the East but Colorado College (despite only one #1 vote) claims the top
spot in the West.

With only one media poll for comparison, the Tadpoll is a bit lame this
week, but here it is anyway:
1. Maine (2) 30
2. Colorado College 28
3. Boston University 26
4. Michigan 23
5. Minnesota 22
6. Michigan State 21
7. Denver 17
8. Bowling Green 16
9. New Hampshire 14
10. Clarkson 13
11. Brown 10
12. Northeastern 8
13. Vermont 3
14. Western Michigan 2
15. RPI 1
No Tad-rate this week, since there was only one rating posted.
There will be no HOCKEY-L poll next week. The next poll will be out in
1995... January 4th, to be precise. Responses are due Tuesday, January 3rd,
at midnight.
Happy holidays, everyone!
