2004-5 ACHA Computer Ratings
rankings last updated December 7, 2004
These ratings are in no way official, they are not endorsed by the ACHA, and are intended only as a way to
compare teams from across this geographically diverse league whose schedule includes a very limited number of
interdivisional games.
Scores and ratings will be updated only once per week during the season, as time permits.
Questions and/or corrections should be sent to [email protected].
2004-2005 ACHA Scores
These are the scores that the ratings are based upon.
It should also be noted that the ratings are an attempt to assess the on-ice game strength of each team, therefore
games that are decided via shootout will be treated as ties and games decided via forfeit will be ignored.
Follow this link for a description of how the ratings program works, how to interpret them, and what the column
headings mean.
The ratings have goal differential limited to 4 in any one game, this system has proven best for high school hockey (where blowouts are more common
and the schedule is less balanced).
How good are these rankings? How do they compare to other rankings? See a description of past successes
for this algorithm ranking amateur hockey teams here.
