We were 17 last week.

Princeton drops from 9 to 12
Clarkson drops one spot to 16
SLUt, previously unranked, slides in to 19

Colgate, Harvard, Yale, Union, and Dartmouth all receive votes. With 9 ECAC teams receiving votes in a top-20 national poll, it seems no one has really figured out what's going on within the conference.

Future opponent NoDak slips from 12 to 18 and is now 3-5-0. Ouch.

St. Cloud is receiving votes.

Umass-Amherst sits 20th with a record of 4-2-1 on the season.

Niagara beat RIT on Friday but is 3-5-1.

To no one's surprise, Scrivens was named ECAC Goalie of the Week, and was nominated for Player of the Week as well.

Didn't NoDak just crack the poll again after being previously unranked, since they split the weekend with CC?

Yep, you're right. I must have been skimming the table and mistook Notre Dame for North Dakota. ::doh::

I think there's definitely some truth to that, but I also think that overall the ECAC is far stronger this season than many people expected.  Already some big wins and ties against non-conference opponents, and SLU went to Michigan and played them darn well.  I'm looking forward to the way this season looks, although I really am NOT looking forward to this year's Clarkson/Cornell games.  I have a feeling it will be too reminiscent of the old trap games that got played 5-6 years ago and those were so ridiculously frustrating to watch.

Speak for yourself...I loved those games. Some of the best games I've seen were classic Cornell clutch and grab hockey.

i agree those games were great ... and just for the record (and the umpteenth time) we don't trap.
