I think printing a top 25 would force the polls to list teams with losing records. I think this would have a negative effect on college hockey, not a positive one, since people would see it as "small-time" and then forget about it. I think it would be a better publicity boost for college hockey to have one poll published instead of 3 or 4. Maybe have one super-poll published consisting of an equal number of coaches, media members, and hockey-l fans, sort of like the tad-poll. -Dean ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dean Barker Cray Research, Inc.
