Where is the pairwise ranking?

[Petunia LiCicero]

I need to know.

  I read in a somewhat obscure place that the first edition will be out by 6 PM on Mon.

The official PWR is available in the meantime: http://slack.net/~whelan/tbrw/tbrw.cgi?pwr

EDIT: Meant to say 'unofficial', not 'official'.  It should still be the same as what gets posted to USCHO eventually.

Seems like USCHO would be smart to delay releasing the PWR until after Monday's late tournament games finish up.  Maybe they've looked at the schedule and it won't matter too much.  Though I suppose the thing updates itself all the time from some scripts they have and it'll be fine.

Thank you for posting that link.

Yeah, USCHO's PWR is updated every night

[jtwcornell91]

Actually, USCHO's PWR (like all of their standings and ratings) is updated every time a new game result shows up in their database.  The slack.net/hockey version is updated overnight.

The USCHO PWR is up:  http://www.uscho.com/polls/?data=pwr1m

Cornell is tied for 13th.

For the hell of it, if the draw was today:

AH: Champion
CHA: Champion
ECAC: Dartmouth, Cornell
WCHA: NoDak, St. Cloud, Wisco, Denver, CC, Minny, Minn-Duluth
HE: BC, Maine
CCHA: OSU, Michigan, Miami

That would make us the bubble team if there were any tournament upsets, right?  Ugh.

13 is much better than the 22 we were entering the tourney!  A significant move by the Red!  And 13 is my lucky number  ;-)

Yep, though short of running the table, further improvement in the PWR is unlikely.  The WMU loss and Mercyhurst and BGSU ties hurt.

However, to be anywhere near at large contention means the team is well ahead of the timetable -- this was going to be a rebuilding year.  Not to mention that they are #1 in conference in pct.  Well, I guess that does mention it.

Some other tid bits: Cornell is 8th in the nation in overall winning percentage, and McKee entered the OSU game 7th in the nation in GAA.

And left it in 8th...

Brown, despite a 6-3-3 record, has fallen off the PWR chart.

The WCHA gets SEVEN teams into the tournament?!  That's frickin' ridiculous.  And only TWO from Hockey East, to boot...that's really sad for eastern teams.

I doubt that will happen.  Mark it down: the cream will rise in the WCHA and the losses to the other teams will knock them down and out of consideration.  Similarly, there will almost certainly be a separation of the top teams in HE and the ECAC.  HE will probably get a third team and the second ECAC team will be off of the bubble.
