As top 4 in ECAC men's hockey get a first round bye, it's going to be down to either Princeton (currently 31 points) or Harvard (30 points).

Both squads have 6 games remaining, with Princeton at Harvard the final weekend.

The remaining schedule, however, significantly favors Harvard:

Princeton:
@ Quinnipiac (13-2-1)
vs Quinnipiac (13-2-1)
vs Colgate (8-6-2)
vs Cornell (12-4)
@ Harvard (10-6)
@ Dartmouth (11-4-1)

Harvard:
@ Brown (3-12-1)
@ Yale (6-10)
@ Union (6-9-1)
@ RPI (4-12)
Princeton (10-6)
Quinnipiac (13-2-1)

Harvard is on the road for 4 of 6 while Princeton plays 3 or its remaining 6 games at home. However, Princeton plays the top 5 teams (excluding itself), including national #5 Quinnipiac twice. Harvard has 4 road games against teams with losing records before finishing at home against Princeton and Quinnipiac.

Thanks. Good analysis. While an unlikely bye would be nice, if Princeton can get home ice in the first round, that would be a good result in Syer’s second year.

Seems there are two main battles:
1. Qunnipiac, Cornell and Dartmouth for ECAC regular season champion; and
2. Princeton or Harvard for 4th place and a first round bye. Perhaps more importantly, assuming the 5th place team survives it's opening home game against the worst team in the league, the regular season seeding will determine whether Princeton vs Harvard is in Princeton or Cambridge.

Colgate at 25 points would seem to remain in the mix for fourth. At least for now.
