These are the two big changes in Hockey East for the 1992-93 season:
1) Quarterfinals will change from a single-elimination format to two-game,
total points. The two games will be played in the normal regular season
format, ties being possible after 5 min of sudden death OT. If the series
is tied after the 2nd game (i.e. 0-0-2 or 1-1-0), then sudden death OT
will be played to decide the series.
2) 2 referees and one linesman will officiate the games.
The 1st change was unanimous among all eight schools. I'm not sure about
the 2nd.
