I suspect the selection committee would simply switch UNH & DU. It's
simple and leaves only UAF traveling out of the ordinary ... and they
already travel quite a ways, what's another 1500 miles? :)
The down side of trying to minimize travel is that conferences will
meet more than usual in the regionals, and would generally be limited
to 2 teams in the Phrozen Phour (above gives CCHA potential of 3).
Thanks, John! cheers, wayne
