Today’s issue is headlined by some big names entering the transfer portal. So far, most of the talent in the portal is on defense, but there are also only 29 players in the portal. Over the last two seasons, more than 200 players entered the portal, so I expect many more names to enter as their seasons end. Today’s entries include a defenseman from Air Force and Dartmouth and a pair of UMass forwards.

Also in this issue …

• DraftKings picks for this weekend (including games tonight and tomorrow)

• Picking the series in the ECAC.

• Picking the single-elimination games in Hockey East, Big Ten and the CCHA.
