Nicole Haase and Todd Milewski from USCHO.com look around NCAA women's hockey as the regular season ends and the playoffs begin. Cornell wrapped up the ECAC Hockey championship, leaving Boston University and UConn to battle for the Hockey East crown and Long Island and Sacred Heart to chase the NEWHA title.

The PairWise Rankings look a little different this week, and that has changed some potential NCAA tournament matchups.

Nicole and Todd weigh in on the question of whether the Women's Frozen Four should be held in NHL arenas. Read Nicole's column on the subject here.

The five conference tournaments all have different formats and dates. Read up on those here.

The show wraps up with a look at the first weekend of the Atlantic Hockey America and ECAC Hockey tournaments and the final weekend of the regular season for Hockey East, NEWHA and the WCHA.
