Jon Greene sent this to me, it's The Sporting News' Top 20 from their
hockey yearbook.  Jon says TSN has cut back on their college coverage
and didn't include schedules this time around - too bad.  The little
one-liners are omitted.  Among those rated high, I thought, were:
RPI, Miami, Maine, Michigan, Providence...rated low were BU, Harvard,
UNH, WMU (neither of previous two in top 20).

     Notes:
     -  I left out the cute comments because some were too hard to take
     (e.g. "Engineers can put on a Little Majic show with Neil and
     Xavier.").
     -  These were put together prior to selection of the Olympic teams or
     late pro signings.  I would make significant changes to some of the
     rankings based on late developments (not to mention the fact that I
     would question some anyway).
