>This looks like an interesting run for the Hockey East regular season title. >No one really has it locked yet. I noticed this Saturday night when we lost >yet another shootout, and BU won again. It's interesting to note that, under >the old system, Maine would have a six point lead in the standings, and thus >a <three> game lead over BU. This year, it's only one game. Actually, under the pre-shoot (or regular point system), Maine would have 24 points and BU 3 points, for a 3 point (or game and a half) lead. Under the original shootout point system (2 points for a win or SO win, 1 point for a SO loss), Maine would have 25 points and BU 23 points, a two point (one game) lead.
