Collegiate Hockey Poll

It's difficult to accurately answer this poll question. Since the CRHL now supports 3 leagues, there really won't be a single league or National Champ. There are teams in the Premier league which will be hosting its own Nationals, and the teams in the Competitive league. So, the poll needs to be a little more specific. It is hard to say who will win Premier, since all final 4 teams are in the Premier league. We will also accept a few at large teams to play at Nationals with us (with a few restrictions). So what is the question being asked?

Reason um-teen why the split league was a horrible idea... Ahh well, I guess I'll add it to the list...

[umroller]

I second that with enthusiasm.

Hi DetroitBandit,

Good point.

I should have stated that the poll was directed toward Division I only. I'll make additional polls for the other two divisions.

It's about time somebody brought some humor back to this board. Thanks for starting my day off with a laugh.

And let me guess, your football team is going to play in the Rose Bowl..........

[detroitbandit]

ohh I SEE RIDING ON THE COATTAILS OF YOUR FOOTBALL TEAM. LETS CHECK SOME INFO ONE OF MY PLAYERS JUST RETURNED FROM THE USA JR WORLDS GOLD MEDAL GAME HIS OTHER TEAMMATES WERE FROM LINDENWOOD SOOO IT LOOKS LIKE EMU AND LINDENWOOD IN THE FINALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT IF YOUR TEAM IS READY TO PLAY LETS SET IT UP AND WE WILL POST THE RESULTS HERE. EMU WILL PLAY ANY TEAM ANY TIME ANY DAY REGARDS EMU COACH

I find it hard to believe that one of your players just got back from the USA Jr Worlds. Last time I checked Juniors was 18&under. How many returning players are 18 or under? I'm glad your so confident though. We'll just have to wait till you get on the ice to see if it's all bark and no bite.

I think the international jr program is up to 19 years of age. I'm not sure. I am sure that Kyle Mikel played in Jrs. and was the Goalie for Lindenwood last year.

OCC is new to the WCRHL this season. I'm not sure how the whole nationals thing works or if we're even allowed to play any of the "premier" teams, but if you look at the scores to our games, you shouldn't think i'm joking when I tell you that we could probably beat any team in the "premier" league or wherever. I'm not trying to boast, just thought it'd be cool if we were known as strong team on the national level. And for you players in the "premier" league who still don't believe me we consist mostly of Narch Division 1 Tour Predators, and finished 2nd in Minn. this last summer only losing to the Empire Snipers. Hope to see some good competition at Winter Nationals.

yo ho yo ho, the pirates life for me!

Id probubly check the teams out before you go running at the mouth, have you ever actully seen any of the stronger teams in the "premier" league, mich st., linwood, RIT, etc...They are very good teams. In order to be known as a strong team nation wide you probubly need to "actully" go to nationals and prove yourselves first. Listing your accomplishments is all fine and dandy, but actully playing and winning the NCT would be alot bigger than words.. There are strong teams all over the country,The only way your going to get the recognition that you obviolsly need is to 1st-make it to nationals, and 2nd-put on a good showing there...Just merely asking for recgonition isent going to get you any.

[NuHusky]

I don't think this guy is demanding recognition and I understand proving how good you are, but trust me, I don't think OCC would have much of a problem competing and doing well in the Premier League. I was out at Narch this summer playing D-1(3rd place Pama Cyclones) and I can tell you first hand, if this team is made up mostly of Tour Predators they would have no problem hanging with the Lindenwoods of college roller hockey. Most of Lindenwood was also at Narch and I don't remember them finishing 2nd. Also, OCC has a great coach in Dave Perumean(sp?)which can help a great deal. I don;t know what division OCC will be at nationals, but I bet they will put on a pretty good showing there.

slap shot,
Two words: spell check.
Boo-ya!

yo ho yo ho the pirates life for me!

OCC is the best college team in the nation...There does that make you feel better,Brin Morris Ive seen you play and you are hardly anywhere near the best talent on your team.
