(#429) How did I do in my preseason picks?
Plus: The latest transfer portal updates, with summaries on the latest commitments, a full notebook and a mailbag on the portal
How did I do in my preseason picks? Well, I’ll grade myself today. Which teams was I spot on? Which teams did I swing and miss (and some badly) on?
— My latest transfer portal update is in this issue, including summaries on all of the latest commitments. Ohio State committed one of the top defensemen in the portal, and an RIT forward tops the list of available players. Plus, we have a downloadable spreadsheet with all of the data on these players and a live link to our portal tracker.
— A notebook on a number of items, including the GLI, key returners for BC, CC, and Denver, and a lot more.
— A mailbag asking to compare the hockey transfer portal with the football transfer portal.
ICYMI earlier today, we broke the news that Princeton had hired Ben Syer. Princeton made it official this afternoon.
COACHES/PLAYERS/ADVISORS: This time of year is extremely busy. If you have a portal update (addition or commitment) to add to our tracker, please do not hesitate to email me at mike@collegehockeyinsider.com. I want to ensure our tracker sheet is 100 percent accurate.
If you have ideas for a future newsletter, tips you want to share, mailbag submissions, or if you want to sponsor a future newsletter, please email mike@collegehockeyinsider.com.
