I think we'll also have to keep an eye on the "have-nots". Harvard
swept this weekend (UVM & Dartmouth), Yale was a preseason #4
by the coaches and looked very good last night, and Union really could
be just a few games away from putting everything together.
 
The ECAC has traditionally been very competitive, despite its reputation
of being the 4th best conference in Division I. I don't think this year will
be any different. I don't recall who said it, but 5 OT games in Lake Placid
could very well happen - not to mention a few cardiac arrests.....
