Originally posted by NUProf View PostI know it is they way it is, but I think teams should have to qualify for the playoffs. Letting a team that finishes last in the regular season participate in the league championship tournament seems wrong to me. I know NU won this time, but I still remember that UMB debacle.

Originally posted by KrbFlint View PostMuch better. Maybe I’m greedy, but I’d love to see just the top 4 get in. Play a conference “final four” at the top seed’s rink Friday/Saturday. Wrap up the whole thing in one weekend.

Originally posted by PrezdeJohnson09 View PostThis will be the last year of that. Next year it will be 8 of 10 like it used to be.
In the days of the old 20 team ECAC East, 10 teams made the playoffs, but NESCAC teams could decline, because they couldn't play in both the NCAA and ECAC playoffs.
I'd rather see something like the SUNYAC system.2007-2008 ECAC East/NESCAC Interlock Pick 'em winner

Originally posted by PrezdeJohnson09 View PostGood point. Brain fart there. Was also thinking about the women too as at least one or two of the women’s teams were left out once the non-Division III teams were pulled out.
