      #14 – Harvard Crimson
      Points: 144.6783 Points
      Points Earned in 2016-2017: 10.0688 (Rank: 3)
      Points Earned in Past Five Seasons: 25.3888 (Rank: 10)
      Last Season Ranking: #14

      The Crimson won a share of the ECAC regular season title (sharing it with Union) and won their second ECAC tournament in three years. Harvard made the NCAA tournament for the third year in a row, and won the NCAA East Regional before falling to Minnesota-Duluth in the national semifinal. Their .806 winning percentage was the highest for the program since the 1988-89 squad.

      The top 3 (and 4 of the top 6) scorers all graduated in 2016-17, so Harvard will need to regenerate offense. However, junior goaltender Merrick Madsen returns for the Crimson, who will be looking to stay on top of the league and continue their NCAA success in 2017-18 to hopefully move up these rankings. – drshoen

        Harvard also won the beanpot for the first time since '93, so there's that.

          Points Earned in Past Five Seasons: 19.9991 (Rank: 11)
          Last Season Ranking: #16

          The Bulldogs had a great season, winning the NCHC Frozen Faceoff and getting to the NCAA championship game before falling to Denver in a nail biter. UMD finished with the program's 2nd best winning percentage, a record of 28-7-7, and were ranked the #1 team in the USCHO poll for 14 weeks. Early departures, including freshman Hunter Miska (.910 SV, 2.20 GAA), and graduation of seven seniors will make it difficult for Minnesota Duluth to repeat their 2016-2017 success. – Siouxfaninseattle

          Air Force over Niagara and Princeton, from 44 to 42, by ~1.4 pts
          W Mich over Minn State, from 41 to 40, by <0.2 pts
          UML over Brown, from 34 to 33, by ~1.3 pts
          NU over St. Cloud, from 32 to 31, by ~0.8 pts

            I predict MN st and SCSU will flip back this year.

              Are we expecting these to speed up a bit.

              We've got 14 teams left, and 8 days til puck drop.

              (We open the season )

                13 teams left, which is really 12, as #2 and #1 are announced together. Plenty of time to wrap up another year of rankings.

                    Maybe all 13 remaining will be posted on Friday, when no one is paying attention?

                      So much for that prognostication.

                        The real question: Can Denver top both BC and BU?
                        I suppose some might be interested to see if the gophers oust Michigan and become #2.
                        GO DU !!!

                          Yeah, this is on me. I started a new job here a couple weeks ago, and I have been absolutely swamped trying to get my feet underneath me. I'm hoping to post a batch of teams (perhaps all?) this weekend. The only write-up I'm waiting on is Michigan Tech's, so I should have everything set to go.

                              That would be me a little preoccupied with my father's dying months and his death last week.
