NCAA Power Index (NPI)

Pairwise Comparisons will no longer be used to guide the selection process for the 16-team tournament. This change was officially approved by the NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Oversight Committee in late September 2025.

How the new NCAA Power Index (NPI) works:
The NPI uses a single, data-driven index. The formula for the NPI is based on several weighted factors, referred to as "dials," which can be adjusted by the committee annually. For the inaugural 2025-2026 season, the weights are set as follows:

Group A (Click on Team for Roster) Group B (Click on Team for Roster)
Team Points (Goal Differential) Team Points (Goal Differential)
USA #1 10 (+12) Sweden #1 12 (+14)
Finland #2 8 (+2) Czechia #2 9 (+16)
Canada #3 7 (+3) Slovakia #3 5 (-3)
Latvia #4 4 (-5) Switzerland #4 3 (-5)
Germany #5 1 (-12) Kazakhstan #5 0 (-22)
