Non-Conference record[]
Of the sixteen teams that are selected to participate in the NCAA tournament, ten will be via at-large bids. Those 10 teams are determined based upon the PairWise rankings. The rankings take into account all games played but are heavily affected by intra-conference results. The result is that teams from leagues which perform better in non-conference are much more likely to receive at-large bids even if they possess inferior records overall.
Atlantic Hockey produced another poor non-conference season. Just one Team finished with a winning record (Niagara) and while some were near .500, most finished well below average in non-league games. The conference as a whole had losing records against all other leagues. They did manage a winning mark against Independent teams, however, many of those victories came against Lindenwood in its first season of varsity play.
