I have a few questions about the results of the hockey-l preseason poll: Hockey-L Preseason Poll - --RANK-- 09-Oct-96 Total -----RANGE----- Ttl #1 New 96end Pts Hi Avg Mode LowVts 3 7 Minnesota 272 1 ---- 3 ---- 24 2 I have read that Minnesota is incredibly deep and strong. It surprises me that they only got two first place votes. 5 1 Colorado Coll 264 1 5.4 3 14 25 2 Why has CC dropped to number 5? Loss of personnel? 7 3 Lake Superior 193 4 ---- 6 ---- 24 Same question as CC. Is it loss of personnel, or is LSU viewed as having overachieved last season? 20 6 Western Mich 26 11 ------------ 9 Huge fourteen place drop for Western Michigan! What's the story with the Broncos? -Alan Harder [log in to unmask] Go Blue!
