Vermont, by the way, apparently will have the dubious
distinction of being the first-ever ECAC team to make the
NCAA tournament despite not making it out of the ECAC
quarterfinal round.

Dubious?  Actually I think it is a compliment to the ECAC
that this year (at least) they had a good enough record out
of conference (except vs WCHA) to have a good PWR team
get in despite a 1st round loss.
 
Only way UVM CAN'T get it:
 
UMass-L or BC wins HE  (3 HE teams) and
Princeton beats Cornell in ECAC finals.
 
If Cornell fails to make the ECAC finals, I think their NCAA
chances are iffy.  As discussed earlier, I think their bye
chances are slim  and none.
