Teams listed W-L-T record reflects only games whose score is listed on the
Minnesota HS Hockey Scores page (sorted first by team name and then by date)
It should also be noted that the ratings are an attempt to assess the on-ice game strength of each team, therefore
games that are decided via shootout will be treated as ties and games decided via forfeit will be ignored.
The Minnesota scores are courtesy of Lee Pagenkopf's MinnHock.com Minnesota High School Hockey site.
If you see that a score is missing from that site you should contact houndhockey@chartermi.net
The program starts all teams with an equal arbitrary value and then
adjusts them all recursively based on game scores until the lowest cumulative
error between expected goal differentials and actual goal differentials is
reached (convergence).
The Total column is in goal units and the difference in this value between
any two teams is the predicted goal differential for a game played at a
neutral site between those two teams. It should be noted that due to goal
differential limits set in the ranking program these predicted goal differentials
are only accurate when comparing teams ranked within three goals of each other.
The differential between teams ranked farther apart becomes more and more
understated as the chosen teams become farther apart in the rankings.
A teams Total value only has meaning
in relation to other teams in the same list (i.e. Totals cannot be compared
from one week to the next or directly to a ratings list for another state).
The Last 5 column is a simple average performance of that team in the last five
games based on current opponent Total values and goal differential (up to max allowed).
Obviously, the fewer games a team's ranking is based upon the less likely
that ranking is to be accurate.
Only teams with at least 3 games against high school teams are listed in the ratings.

Since some "mismatch" games are not used in determining the rankings, the Sched column can be somewhat misleading
as it only reflects the average opponent strength of only the opponents ranked within 4 goals of each team.
