Thinking about the RPI and it's signifiance in selecting
        teams for the Div.I playoffs brings up a question...
 
        Are the games played in holiday tournaments included in
        this ranking?  It would seem that this year (because of
        the WJC's in Canada) some teams were missing players
        that could have made a difference.
 
        On the other side of the coin, I would think that coaches
        would not be messing around and experimenting with their
        lines if it had an affect on their possibility of making
        the playoffs.
