CTHSHockey Top 10: Week 3

December 26, 2012 

By: Luke Devoe
Prep is probably the best team in the state but I can't justify dropping the Knights until they warrant doing so.  After that it's pretty even.  As of right now it's probably a two horse race.  Easties are undefeated but the quality of opponent raises big questions.  This week some D2 teams have a chance to step up and try to peek in the back end of the rankings.  Ridgefield is probably the best .500 team in the state.  No rationale this week.  Enjoy.
