The College Hockey Discussion List Poll for December 14, 1994:
Teams were given 15 points for a first-place vote, 14 for a second-place
vote, and so on down to 1 point for a fifteenth-place vote. Total first-
place votes are in parentheses.
Once again, it's Maine and Colorado College getting the top two spots in the
poll, even more solidly since no other team got a #1 vote. Denver's sweep
at Minnesota propelled the Pioneers up four places in the rankings and made
them this week's big gainer.
