The College Hockey Computer Rating uses a connected schedule graph
and a least squares optimization to rate the 44 Division I college hockey
teams. This method considers a team's opponents, and their opponents, etc,
until all 264 Division I games are included.
In addition to rating the teams, a strength of schedule is calculated
for each team. The schedule strength can be computed by averaging the
ratings of a team's opponents for each game.
The ratings are normalized so that the #1 team receives a 100.00 and #44
gets a 0.00. Thus, the ratings are purely relative numbers, rating a team
based on the rest of college hockey and not on any absolute basis.
For every game, the teams are evaluated based on: the outcome (win,
lose, tie); the margin of victory; the site of the game (home, away,
neutral ice); and overtime or regulation time.
Only games against other Division I teams are considered.
