I don't see what the upsets in Hockey East have to do with UVM's bid.
Assuming that the PWR's have enough inertia that this weekend's games don't
affect the ratings we have:
UVM is 5th in PWR, and three of the teams above them are RS champs. Even
if *all* of the tourneys ended with upsets, there are still 4 at large
bids, and Vermont will be second in line to get one of them (first if UND
is the one who upsets UMinn). UVM is a lock for a bid, IMHO. Where they
get seeded is another matter - I hope the committee has enough flexibility
to be allowed to punish UVM for completely blowing the end of their season.
