I'd say the title that takes consistent play over an entire conference season (20 games) is more difficult to win than the title that takes consistent play over a weekend (2-3 games) to win. That said, the Conference Tourney Championship may be more meaningful in terms of how well a team is playing going into the National Tournament.
Last season the Gophers played tremendously well most of the regular season, but weren't playing their best hockey at the end of the year (hence getting swept at Wisconsin and losing at Yost) . Good thing we were able to get back on the right foot against Bob Morris and St. Cloud in the NCAA Tourney and ride that thru the Whioux to the Championship game (where the wheels fell off).
