After unveiling its all-rookie team on Tuesday, the NCHC announced its two all-conference teams on Wednesday, with four different teams represented on the first team, including a trio of Denver players.<\/p>\n

Voting was conducted by the eight head coaches at each institution and eight media members, one covering each member school. Coaches and media voted for six forwards, four defensemen and two goaltenders, awarding first-team votes for six players (three forwards, two defensemen and one goaltender) and second-team votes for the other six selections. Three points were awarded for a first-team vote while one point was awarded for a second-team vote, with the most points at each position earning the honors. Coaches were not allowed to vote for their own players, making 15 first-place votes the maximum a player can receive.<\/p>\n
