Projecting PC to go 4-0 with a game at NU looks chancy. The Friars have
the elegant offense, but will it be enough.
The Huskies got off to a remarkable start. Recently they have been off
boil. If Looney Tunes & Co. hit stride, they could be hard to catch.
The Brown Bears have been playing great hockey I hear. Coach "Digit"
has a team with solid goaltending and plenty of firepower.
UNH has a tough finish to make my predictions. Recent wins over NU & PC
suggest the Empire may be pulling it together for the playoffs.
Princeton could shake up the big teams. The Maidens of Pain have a big
offense, and if they can keep getting results like the PC victory ...
St. Lawrence just gets better ever year. Their big win over travel
partner Dartmouth gives them an edge for the playoffs.
Dartmouth looks like they can easily make the playoffs. You just have
to wonder when this fine, but small, squad will click.
The Crimson look relatively sure to make the playoffs. The first year
players (especially AJ) have given them the scoring they needed.
Colby has a shot at making the playoffs, but having to play the big
guys isn't going to help.
I am guessing that Yale is going to come through with a close win. I
feel over the last two years they have been improving.
RIT could easily prove me wrong. They have had some good wins against
Big Red recently. A few years ago they seemed on the rise?
Cornell is probably destine to the cellar. I see good thinks for them
in the future as the new organization pays off.
I have heard that there will be a committee who determines the
final seedings for the playoffs. If the standings break down like I
guess, only Dartmouth and Harvard will be tied. By then Big Green
should have the better goals for record.
