The bye week is the most dangerous if last year has not been erased.

We will find out! We're in a different position this year compared to last year.  I wonder if there will be a sled hockey event this year like last year during bye week.

Hopefully the party is well organized and all behavior acceptable. Fingers crossed.

Current NPI would have a regional (presumably Sioux Falls) look like this:

(3) UND vs. (14) BC

(6) UMD vs (11) Dartmouth

Augie is the host so they would be here

It looks to me like the npi is more volatile than pairwise was this time of year and that there is nothing we can do to prevent penn state from jumping us given their upcoming schedule and the huge bonus points they’ll get for just going 2-2 the next two weekends. Gotta hold off western for the last 1 seed

Even though UND swept ASU, their NPI  percentage barely moved over the weekend:

Before Friday: 58.145

Before Saturday: 58.449

Currently: 58.476

Clarkson, Mercyhurst and MN all lost yesterday; & per usual like clockwork, Bemidji St. also lost & is tanking the second half of their season. None of these are helping UND's NPI. Only bright spot yesterday was STT.

--------------------------

Michigan (idle over the weekend):

Before Friday: 60.117

Before Saturday: 60.448

Currently: 60.386

NPI is crazy tight for 3-5 right now. If it holds this close toward the end of the season, that series against WMU will be huge for both NCHC standings and NPI.
