I believe PS2 will be updated today. I'm using the last list that is about two weeks old.

A few things jump out at me.
  • 1- Three different techniques, but it is uncanny how they all come to the same conclusion.
    2- On paper Moorhead, Cretin, and Hill are pretty equal. (Obviously a computer ranking takes no consideration for roster changes with the Pioneers.)
    3- The only "gimme" is drawing Century.
    4- The seeds do match the team's ratings in these lists.
The most important thing at this time of the season is playing well. Goaltending provides a total X factor. As always, it will be interesting.
