The answers, if you get any, are going to be, by their very nature, purely subjective. I hope you'll pardon me, but it's a useless question. Hockey East has Maine, clearly the dominant team this year, so it could be called best. The CCHA has the best competition among its top few teams this year, so it could be called best. Which league has the "best" organization and administration? I don't know, do you? Which league has produced the most NC$$ champions? That would be a possible argument... > i think that the wcha is the best. they have had several great teams in > the past not to mention they have sent some great players to the nhl. > such as... brett hull, ed belfour, dallas drake and jim hiller, also rick ^ > zombo, and a great coach in bob johnson Your answers point out the problems. I come from a WCHA school originally, so I "like" the WCHA, but everything you listed in this response could be matched by any of the other leagues- good teams, coaches, players in the nhl, etc. > This should be intersting----jim --s13i@nmumus I don't think it will be terribly interesting or even more to the point, useful. Just IMHO, of course... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joel Graber Michigan Tech '87 Let's go Tech!!!
