Regardless, maybe this kid will get the credit she deserves as one of the top 2 or 3 players in D3 hockey.....either way , if she decides to come back for year 4 or not........she has had a great career. Here is hoping.
    I'm pretty sure this is incorrect.

    I talked to Coach Bolding earlier this year and I'm 98% sure Sophie's athletic clock has expired because of her time at Vermont.

        OHA and NAHA White faced each other many times (I'd say 6 to 8 times) this year in various tournaments and exhibition play.

        NAHA won the majority of those games, but OHA is in it's second year of operation, majority of their players are returning, so expect them to be even stronger next year, specially up front with most of their offensive weapons returning.

        Post Script Edit:
        Just checked on the NAHA site
        ....NAHA White and OHA met 8 times, NAHA won 7, OHA 1.
        ....One game went in to OT, 3 of the NAHA wins were by a score of 3-2.

          Interesting...I bet coach Bolding hopes the rumor is true.

          Any predictions on where Norwich will be ranked at the beginning of the year?

            Not sure who you are hearing the rumors from. saw OHA play---- the lascelle girl is a solid D top 3 on the team--lortie girl is good to get you that winning goal you need to win a game---2nd yr in operation and OHA's intermediate team has been voted 2nd in all of CAnada for prep schools and ranked #8 amongst all the PWHL teams and the rest of them directly under the ottawa senator team --- i believe they also went in and beat the national champions Assebet Valley(U19) in their own tournament this yr. From what i understand with NAHA OHA coach brings up some WHITE team girls to play in the fun games---Naha white takes the older girls and brings them down to play against younger girls---rationale--possible to win??? Watch out for this OHA club Bolding may have tapped into something good here!!!

                Coach Bolding will be smiling ear to ear if rumour is true (Sophie) and with his acquisition of a goal scoring F(Lortie)and a solid D(Lascelle) from OHA will surely help the Cadets to reach their status as a DIII champion

                  Where are you getting these statistics from? Since most of Canada's prep teams across the country don't generally play against one another (and there are very few hockey-specific preps to begin with), your professed #2 ranking for OHA is pretty hypothetical.

                  Similarly, OHA does not typically play against the PWHL teams much. Furthermore, having seen all the PWHL teams alot this year, and seeing OHA play against them, a #8 ranking among PWHL teams is a big stretch.

                      Blah....blah....blah..........today i win.........tommorrow you win.....just shows that on any given day the good teams win some then lose some.
                      Sure NAHA has won more games over OHA but most of the games were 1 goal games I dont think many teams gave NAHA a run for their money like OHA did.....................always good competion between both,very exciting to watch

                        From an OWHA perspective, the OHA team carries too many imports to be eligible for things like PWHL and Provincials. Technically there is a league for OHA to play in. The same one Ridley, Appleby and Trinity are part of as they are some of the other Ontario based prep schools with hockey programs.

                          Many schools, OHA included, run good programs. But before you spout off on how good OHA is compared to the rest, you may want to check some stats and facts.

                          NAHA vs OHA was 7-1 in games won-lost during the last season. Some teams did give NAHA more than just a run for their money, including a couple of other Canadian Prep teams. BC Pursuit won 5-1 over NAHA in a tournament final. Warner beat NAHA in the JWHL playoffs to win that event.

                            The U19 rankings are populated with only about a 1/2 season of data....most of these teams have played about 70 games by now, but only 30ish are listed. So the rankings, to whatever extent the statistical methods of comparison may be accurate, are VERY out of date.

                            In the case of the Toronto Aeros, ranked #1 according to this site, they blanked NAHA 5-0 in their only meeting. The Aeros have never played OHA.

                            The Mississauga Chiefs, ranked #2 on this site, played OHA only once, and blanked them 3-0. They later tied NAHA 4-4 in their lone meeting.

                            I am unsure if OHA ever played the other PWHL teams as you suggest. As OnMAA pointed out, NAHA beat OHA 7 times out of 8, and other Canadian prep schools including Pursuit of Excellence and Warner both beat NAHA in key events too. So OHA's one win in 8 tries vs NAHA doesn't look too compelling.

                            Frankly, given not only the lack of data input for all ranked teams for the second half of the season, but when combined with very little overlap of schedules between OHA and the teams they are being ranked against to strengthen the statistical validity, I would say the value of this OHA ranking of #8 would have to be quite dubious.

                                Missy was under the OWHA limit. You are only an import for your first year. For example Saulnier was not considered an import from an OWHA perspective last season, even though her home residence is NS, as she played on an OWHA based team the year before.
