[Trotsky]

The 5-point lead to finish the season is on the larger side in ECAC history.  Since the 12-team realignment in 1985:

Cornell's percentage of GF over all goals in games shows the Big Red's improvement and historical heights.

This year, Cornell scored 70% of the goals in their ECAC games.  The only teams to do better: 66-71, 03, and 05.

SLU finished dead last for the third year in a row.  The only other team to do that was Princeton (2014-16).

It was asked on another thread when was the last time an ECAC team had at least 38 points.  It was 2005 (Cornell).  Points by seed by year, here.

The standard deviation (sigma) for this year's ECAC RS Points was 9.82, the largest since 1996.  This is a measure of dispersion around the mean (mu) and indicates that this year there was far less parity in the conference than recently.

I love seeing that Veritas shield hanging there.

I noticed that Cornell is the only one of the five NCAA title holders in the league to have never finished last.

Yes.  That is enjoyable.

And it is forever.
