Which begs the question (after two weekends of Brown stuff on our collective shoes...or skates) is it mediocrity or parity that we are seeing in Division One hockey?  The first round NCAA upsets of the past few years have made me a believer in the significant number of very talented players on all the division one teams.

Mediocrity is the flip side of parity because there's no objective measure except relative to the competition.

In the ECAC, at least, dispersion has been tightening.  Solely on spotty observation I'd argue this is because the weakest sisters have come up to the pack.
