    Oh so you're a graduate of the school and never got recruited to play hockey in college! Now your bitterness makes sense!

              I imagine if Hamline beats perennial western contenders like River Falls, GAC and St. Thomas to the western region's first D3 NCAA championship some heads will explode.

              It's not unheard of to trim down if a team brings in players they think are a better fit. I remember when Plattsburgh did it in Fall 2010. Brought in transfers Klassen, Fisher, Aveson and then Neumann mid-season as well as four freshmen (two of which were key pieces in the 2014 championship run). They ended up with 8 players from the 09-10 team with eligibility left not returning, most notably Mackenzie Lee who went to Oswego and led them in scoring her two seasons there.

              This is a good year for Hamline to do it. Plattsburgh, Middlebury, Elmira, GAC and UWRF all losing top senior scorers (some more players than others). Norwich and Elmira both graduated their starting goalie (so did UWRF, but their senior had a 17-11 split in starts with a sophomore). I would consider Norwich a favorite with who they have returning, but if there's been an opening in recent years it would be this year. It's kind of refreshing to see a program outside the big six/seven perennial contenders decide they really want to run the race.

                Hamline graduated 106 points in Bobrowski and Dodds. That kind of natural scoring talent is hard to replace no matter if you're a D1 or D3 program but I'd say it's probably harder for a D3 program to do. Maybe the idea with them is to try to replace those points by bringing in a lot of players so they don't have to rely on just two players to score that many points in a season. The Syracuse transfer only scored 2 points all last season so I really don't believe she's going to suddenly score 50 points just by transferring to a D3 team. She probably should have gone D3 in the first place. I don't see Hamline repeating last season's success. If Darwitz is replacing that many players this year you would guess she is going to replace kids that were not productive which means she's mostly replacing her own recruits at this point because almost all the low scoring players were freshmen and sophomores. That doesn't show a whole lot of loyalty to players that she's recruited in. Maybe she's turing into the female version of the GAC coach. Not a good sign!

                  True Dodds and Bobrowski will be hard to replace, but Simon had 56 points as a sophomore and Hansen had 32 as a freshman. Then they have four forwards returning between 14 and 19 points. It stands to reason that some combination of these players can increase their production to mitigate the loss as they will be given the chance for more ice time. It will be tough but not impossible.

                  As for the Syracuse transfer, I tend to give D1 transfers the benefit of the doubt and not hang on to their production with the old school. If their numbers were halfway decent they'd likely still be D1. Ali Vakos scored 11 points in 68 games at UConn, put up a 30+ point season for Plattsburgh her senior season. Jenny Kistner had 3 points in her season at Maine, never scored below 23 points a season for the Cardinals.

                  A lot of these players who have low numbers mostly riding the pine in D1 or even playing third/fourth line on a D3 roster can play well if given the right system and time on ice. Or maybe it seems that way due to confirmation bias seeing it happen with the team I root for...

                    Your last sentence is very correct! I think most D1 to D3 transfers could play at Plattsburgh and put up a bunch more points than they did as D1 players. Put them at a low end D3 school and that wouldn't happen because they couldn't do it on their own. Hamline isn't low end anymore but they certainly aren't a Plattsburgh either!

                      Bobrowski was head and shoulders the best player in the MIAC, and Dodds was responsible defensively. Simon and Hansen aren't wonderful in their own zone. But some of the recruits they've landed are very talented - so far, the best in-state recruits that have been announced (have to think St. Thomas has some up their sleeve they haven't revealed yet.) So, Hamline will likely be favored in the league, but GAC and St. Thomas will be real solid again. As to Darwitz turning into Mike Carroll... they are equally liked in the league.

But some of the recruits they've landed are very talented - so far, the best in-state recruits that have been announced (have to think St. Thomas has some up their sleeve they haven't revealed yet.) So, Hamline will likely be favored in the league, but GAC and St. Thomas will be real solid again. As to Darwitz turning into Mike Carroll... they are equally liked in the league.
                        LMAO, thank you for giving me such a full outburst of genuine laughter with your last sentence! So eloquently put!

                          If we are adding transfers to the list:

                          DI transfers from UMD to UW Superior:

                          Catherine Johnson - G
                          Lauren Niska - D

                          Seamless transfer—Rumor has it (unverified) that they aren’t even moving — continuing to rent with the UMD junior class hockey players.

                          Johnson is likely to be a big presence and excellent mentor to the other Gs. Guessing she got the squeeze from UMD with Rooney returning from the Olympics and now in the same class and their new freshman from Sweden (senior statesman--older than Johnson and will turn 21 her freshman year.... that's a conversation for another day).
