Re: USCHO Women's Hockey Posters Poll

The irony of that approach is that He/She has lots of opinions on various subjects and postings by others, but none of his/her own input on the rankings, other than doing some math to compile rankings of others. There is a message in there somewhere.

Actually pokechecker did take issue with my rankings a few weeks ago indicating I had them wrong and expressed a contrary opinion on the proper ranking.

Right before UW abruptly popped the UND bubble in GF and providing some proof I may have been mistaken...if memory serves.

Hey pokechecker might be the worst poster on the forum ...

That's a competitive category; don't cede that honor so lightly.

That's a competitive category; don't cede that honor so lightly.

Just to qualify: Is this in reference to to women's forum or does it include both men's and women's forums? If it is both then it certainly does become a more competitive category.

so you missed me! you don't know how that makes me feel.

no, you really don't

I am caught between wanting to say two different things, so I'll say them both:

opinions are like ... everybody has one

I am the only one in this thread who atually is contributing something, the Pokechecker Index, so pull your head out ONMAA

Re: USCHO Women's Hockey Posters Poll

So which ranking system is most accurate?
The Pokechecker Index indicates the KRACH is, the only difference is that Robert Morse & Clarkson flip in their ranking.

Pokechecker (average of all the rankings):
1) MN 1-1-1-1=4
2) WI 2-2-2-3=9
3) CO 3-4-3-2=12
4) ND 4.5-3-4-7=18.5
5) HU 5.5-5-5-4=19.5
6) CL 5.5-7-8-5=25.5
7) RM 8-8-6-6=28
8) BU 9-6-8-8=31
9) BC 8.5-10-9-9=36.5
10) Q 10-11-10-10=41

KRACH:
1 Minnesota 20-1-1
2 Wisconsin 17-3-2
3 Cornell 13-1-3
4 North Dakota 13-5-2
5 Harvard 12-2-2
6 Robert Morris 18-3-1
7 Clarkson 16-4-2
8 Boston University 16-4-1
9 Boston College 14-4-3
10 Quinnipiac 16-3-5

and the Pokechecker Index reveals that the 2 positions most up for grabs is 4 & 5, which is pretty important because #4 should have home ice in the first round of NCAA tourney against #5.

If the NCAA tourney was this weekend the matchups would be:
BC & Quinnipiac would be out

#8 BU @ #1 Minnesota
#5 Harvard @ #4 UND
#7 Clarkson @ #3 Cornell
#6 Robert Morse @ #2 Wisconsin

Of course this would never happen, no way would they give home ice to the 3 WCHA teams, but hey! Clarkson should be able to afford to travel to Cornell right?
And surely Harvard (with it's multi billion dollar endowment) should be able to afford to send it's only team with a chance in H-E-double hockey sticks of winning a national championship to Grand Forks.

Don't think it matters what teams can afford. If I'm not mistaken this tab is on the NCAA.

Sigh. You KNOW that's not how it works.
