Well, here goes nothing.  Under the revamped NCHA schedule (the one which
split the conference into 2 divisions and generally complicated life),
pay particular attention to teams which represent both conference AND
non-conference games.
 
The Divisions:
 
Lake Forest College                     Bemidji State
St. Norbert                             St. Scholastica
UW-River Falls                          UW-Eau Claire
UW-Stevens Point                        UW-Superior
 
The Format (?????)
Play teams within your division home and home; play teams in the other
division once (i.e., 2 games/1 weekend).

This is it for now -- I should have the composite NCHA schedule out the
first part of the week.  Only time will tell whether or not this new
format will prove to be as foolish as it initially appears.
