NCAA Hockey 13

[JB51Hockey]

So I created 30 NCAA hockey teams in NHL 13 and will substitute them in a 82-game season mode. The rosters are alumni currently playing in the NHL and AHL. For the rest of the roster spots I used CHL players. Here are the divisions...

Northwest: Alaska-Achorage, Denver, Alaska, Air Force, Colorado College
Pacific: Miami (OH), Bowling Green, North Dakota, Notre Dame, Nebraska-Omaha
Central: Penn State, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Michigan, Minnesota
Northeast: Providence, UMass-Lowell, Maine, New Hampshire, Brown
Atlantic: Cornell, RPI, Clarkson, Niagara, Union
Southeast: Boston College, Boston University, Vermont, Dartmouth, Yale

Obviously, the top teams are North Dakota, Michigan, Minnesota and Boston College. I will use Providence and I have created 25 players from this years team with accurate attributes. The team averages out to be a 75 which is pretty accurate as the best teams are low 80's and worst are high 60's. Games will be played on All-Star difficulty which can go either way for me.

Will update stats weekly in the season on here.
