    3 out of 4 national titles since the formation of the NCHC... pretty good but still some work to do.

          Top to bottom the B1G is better. Doesn't mean they have the best overall team. There is a difference.

            Head to Head NCHC was better than the B1G this year. Before the two biggest games of the year

                Out of curiosity, what was the head-to-head between the NCHC and the B1G?

                            National Champions Hockey Conference maybe?! I know that was too hard to figure out.

                              Yikes. Pretty dominant.

                              That being said, the B1G did get more teams in the NCAA Tournament (4-3) and Frozen Four (3-1) and had a pretty good run in the NCAA Tournament, going a collective 7-4. However, the NCHC went 5-2...including going 3-1 against the B1G, and claimed the national title.

                              Decent arguments could be made both ways as for who was "better" this season, but I think the two conferences are pretty close to each other in terms of strength. Given that, the B1G certainly closed the gap that had existed the past 2-3 seasons, and the "West" definitely has the edge in hockey at the moment. Now we just have to wait until next season to see where it goes.
