*Team's RPI has been adjusted to remove negative effect from defeating weak opponent.
The Ratings Percentage Index is one tool used to select teams for the national collegiate ice hockey tournament. Only results from games between two teams that each play 20 or more games against Division 1 opponents are used. Factors involved are 1) the team's winning percentage; 2) the average winning percentage of the team's opponents; and 3) the average winning percentage of the team's opponents' opponents. These factors are multiplied by 25%, 21%, and 54% respectively.
Note: A team's record is based only on games against other Division I hockey schools which are eligible for the NCAA Tournament. In particular, only non-exhibition matchups between schools in the six major conferences count towards a team's record as used in the RPI and PWR. Other games, including contests against Canadian schools and tournament-ineligible D-I programs, are not counted.
