      In the past, I would do my weekly ranking by copying this week from the 2015 season and flipping the #5 and #6 teams. Now that the Rage of the Cupcakes has turned women's hockey into a modern version of 1980s Big Ten football, I have been forced to engage the services of astrologists, geographers, cosmetologists, and hipsters I encounter at the coffee shop, all in an effort to identify the #3 team. I hope this season sorts itself out soon.

        I checked, they lost 5 that season. They didn't look like a team that was about to go 62-0-0. Maybe "struggling" was not the exact word but the point is still valid.

          When was the last time we had a midseason shuffle like we had this weekend? Just nuts.

            I imagine when you approach them about hockey they are turned off until they realize it’s women’s hockey you are talking about and then they invite you to chill and share a kale, quinoa, sweet potato, sprouts, avocado, and hemp seed salad.

            I get a lot of good advice on women's hockey at the Pagan Pride Festival each fall at Minnehaha Park. Not sure where to go to find them this time of year, my guess is busking in the skyway downtown during lunch time

              Could it be said that the Cupcakes are mixing things up?

              See, you are always on the cutting edge of things. I would have never thought to seek advice in the manner that you did to fill out your poll.
              At the outset, we could hang with the dude...

                I had a tough time shuffling, because it was difficult to find teams to move up. I wanted to drop the whole lot, like imploding a building.

                  I guess justification why the national poll stops at 10

                    One-third of the teams, same as the men (20/60)

                      I struggled with my #3 and finally decided on Cornell because of the experience they have on the back end. I do like the way NE plays and the skill they have up front but putting my money on defense this week! After that it’s a crap shoot.

                              In this week's poll I decided to switch BC and BU between #10 and ARV because:
                              (a) BU swept the Eagles in their recent home & home series, and
                              (b) BC has now lost four out of their last five games...finally had to drop them out of the Top 10.
