[Al DeFlorio]

I'm confused, Jim.  Your poll is for men but the two you cite are for women.::doh::

[TimV]

Right.  I didn't read carefully enough to see those were women's polls.  Easy mistake to make with Minnesota and BC at 1 and 2.  But then my thought was Clarkson?  CLARKSON???::wtf::

[Jim Hyla]

Men's polls haven't been announced yet. My plan, like last year, is to post all polls weekly. I didn't think there would be enough contrversy about the women in the ECAC to poll it, and I didn't want to wait till the men's polls are released to start our own. Sorry about the confusion, I've added a note that these are just the women's polls so far.

[Al DeFlorio]

OK.  Voted.

USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine Men's Preseason is posted. We're in the also category at 18, but Yale with 4 first place votes? I guess traditionalists who say they're still first till someone beats them?

I guess it depends on how well they weather the goaltending transition.  They lost a couple of their top scorers, but that's true of most teams most years if I'm not mistaken.  BC (who I'm just going to assume will win the championship until they stop winning it every other year) lost two of their top three scorers and the goalie who played almost all their minutes.  Quinnipiac lost two of their top three scorers and the goalie who played almost all their minutes.  I don't know enough about the goalie recruit(s) they presumably have coming in to say whether that'll be a problem for them, but I think their system and depth are strong enough that they shouldn't have TOO much of a fall-off.

Opinions vary.

Well, you know what they say about opinions.

[Jim Hyla]

From media day today Ken Schott is reporting the coaches poll has Yale at 1, media has RPI. We're 5 in both, with a first place vote in each. Cornell's Joakim Ryan was on the coaches' team. Once the ECAC posts the results, I'll post them.
