No changes in the top five of this week's Top 10 however with league play now is full flight and much balance among teams at/near the top, expect some churn going forward. Four teams remain undefeated against CIS competition and those 4 teams are our top 4 in this week's ranking. #1 Carleton (8-0, 2-0) (LW #1) The Ravens were on the brink of defeat - and in fact should easily have lost - this past...

He hasn't got a chance of winning, but he's the North's favourite son. Even after conceding,...
