    Thanks for the explanation. So the schools that are D 1 such as Sacred Heart are out of contention for the D 1 postseason since they play a D2 schedule?

    Currently D1 and D2 schools compete for a National Collegiate Championship (providing they meet the minimum scheduling requirements). D3 schools must play for the D3 title (aka the Cardinal Invitational).

    A D2 school not meeting the scheduling requirements is SoL for NCAA postseason.

      For women's hockey, there technically is no D1. They have a Nationl Collegiate Diviaion for which all D1 and D2 school are eligible, provided they play a minimum number of games against other D1 or D2 schools.

        Games v D2 teams would count towards NCAA selection ( it's a D1/D2 tournament). Games v D3 don't count.

          Same thing happens in reverse for D3 teams: games against D1/D2 teams don't count towards rankings for D3 at large spots for nationals. That was one of the reasons (the main reason?) that the NEHC dropped the D2 teams from their conference at the end of last year.

He has two daughters who played NCAA hockey: one played forward for Harvard while his other played on the blue line for St. Anselm so he is at least familiar with the college level as a parent and a prep coach.
            Salem State formally announces Malcolm Spurling hire. Release here. Unless I'm forgetting someone that's all of the HC vacancies...

                It's been pretty slow on the D3 thread lately. Hopefully now that Captain's practices are starting up things will get interesting soon.

                  No St. Thomas in the MIAC Playoffs this year...one year, self imposed violation upheld by the NCAA???

                  Post season could look like - Gustavus, Concordia, Hamline, Augsburg, Bethel in no particular order of course.

                    I hadn't heard about this ban. Any link to read more? Tried Google/Twitter and turned up nothing...

                      Explains the exodus to Hamline.

                      Would like to see who's left at St. Thomas now. Anyone besides Zarembinski and Schwartzman leave? Their returning defense was probably the best in the league.

                      • Castleton schedule is now out:

                        http://www.castletonsports.com/sports/wice/2017-18/schedule

                        A little easier schedule than last year. Hopefully gives the team a little wiggle room to put some W's on the board and slowly climb up the rankings over the next couple of seasons.

                          I see they're not taking advantage of the second exhibition.

                            Yes, St.Thomas received an infraction after playoffs last year. Banned from post season play.

                              St. Thomas women's hockey coach Tom Palkowski has added two assistant coaches with impressive playing and coaching resumes -- Marty Sertich and Alexandra Zebro Kleinhuizen.

                                If St. Thomas can't play in the post season, how would this affect the NCAA rankings at the end of the year for teams that have either beaten them or tied them? Will they be counted in the standings, or would they basically be considered an exhibition game to teams?
