Hockey East announces league play and tournament changes

December 15, 2020

 

The Hockey East Association on Tuesday announced some changes to league play and tournament play for the 2020-21 season.

The league now will count all games played between member schools both on the women’s side and men’s side as countable league games to be used in the Hockey East standings. The league had previously set some of the games as non-league contests, but that will be no longer and the standings have already been adjusted. Also all teams playing league games this season will make the 2021 Hockey East Tournament, with the standings used to seed the teams at playoff time.
