Amen David!! Truth is no one conference can claim superiority until the experiment is done,yearly... and that is to arrange a decent percentage of games outside of league play.... ECAC and HE do it and to some extent the CCHA but, for a variety of reasons, the WCHA does not .... so we are stuck and I think arguing about something that cannot be proved inwords .... comparison scores don't work .... try some of RPI's! On a similar topic, I feel one of the reason for so much 0.500 ness is that a lot of league games are played backto back... IMHO it is easy to split that way ... you see a team on Fri, say play a close loss, then adjust and come back for a close win .... in other leagues, eg the ECAC, the weekend opponents are different, say SLU followed by Clarkson ... much harder to adjust in 24 hrs to a different team ...and then you may not play them each again for a month or two .... and the team character may have changed with injuries, academic eligibility probs, etc. Just a thought or two!!
