Standings
For the 2014-15 the league modified the three point system for league standings that were adopted for the 2013-14 season. Starting with the 2014-15 season, three points were awarded for a regulation or overtime win; two for a shootout win; one for an shootout loss, none for a regulation or overtime loss. Under the NCAA guidelines games decided in overtime or shootout are considered ties and are counted as ties in the conference standings.

Format
The top five teams qualify for the single elimination tournament. The 4th seed plays the fifth seed in the first round. The top seed plays the first round winner and the 2nd seed plays the 3 seed in the semifinals.
