Only if OSU wins the CCHA in the scenarios I tried ...  and St Cloud may
have something to say about even that.

That direct comparison is important, but often a game result can affect
several team comparisons.

It may be interesting to look at all of this again after today's games,
when the possibilities are more manageable.
