I was watching Murray's interview, but I guess I didn't catch the part when he talked about the PWR ratings. What did he say?
About the rankings, there's a big half of me that wants to see us #1- but only if we're playing like #1 and deserve that ranking. Obviously, the most important poll comes at the end of the season, when the national champion is ranked number one, but for now, I think it would be awesome to see CU as #1 for the first time ever.
As far as pressure, I think that the pressure is there no matter what. Everyone in the ECAC (especially you know who in Cambridge) is gunning for us. And, beyond that, once into the NCAA tournament, the stakes and the pressure are high enough already because it's win or go home. So, I think that we should've bumped by CC this week, even considering that our two wins were against unranked teams, and they lost to a (now) top ten team. We don't have any choice in who we play at this time of year- neither do they- so I still think we should have moved up.
