I tend to agree...the NCHC may be a little inflated this year and the WCHA may be a bit undervalued but this is the formula they are using so that's what everybody is dealing with. I still think the top 5 teams in the NCHC are good enough THIS YEAR to make the tourney no matter what formula you use. I'm glad for Mankato and Tech, hope to see you guys in the tourney...
Note: You said aeration, did you mean aberration?
