Notes from the Women's Portal: Ohio State starts its offseason reload

Fresh off winning the 2024 national title, the Buckeyes haven't wasted any time in recruiting from the transfer portal. Other teams have started to make a splash as well.

By Sydney Wolf
Today at 11:24 AM (Apr. 18, 2024)

While the men's transfer portal has been exploding in recent weeks with now over 300 current player entrants, the women's portal has been a bit quieter.

Almost all of the athletes that intend to transfer have already entered the portal on the women's side and the overall number of names on the list hovers around 120 on The Rink Live Portal Tracker. A few more players will definitely throw their names in the ring later, but a majority of players have entered, so now it's just simply a waiting game of seeing where these players end up. ...

Boston U also looks primed to make another Frozen Four appearance. Cole Eiserman is probably going to be the top drafted US born players at the 2024 draft. Lane Hutson's younger brother Cole is also going to be added to defence.

This place has been known to jump the gun well ahead of announcements, some so soon they don't turn out to be true, but they're credible enough for this to be something to watch in college hockey going forward

Am I missing something? Summit League only has four hockey schools, so if they made a hockey championship then they'd need at least two other schools joining as at least affiliates to have an auto-bid.

Not sure of the inventive for North Dakota, UNO, and Denver to do this unless the Summit's about to get a good broadcast deal and they need hockey to be part of that. They have a good thing going with the NCHC.
