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:
- Winning percentage: 25%
- Strength of schedule: 75%
- Quality win bonus points: The NPI also incorporates bonus points for "quality wins"
- Overtime: A specific mechanism factors in games that go into overtime.
- Minimum wins: Teams must count at least 12 wins in their calculation, regardless of whether those wins would lower their NPI score.
