The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
I put this together today to get a gauge on the talent coming into the conference. This is all purely from EliteProspects and the Sportsnet tracker. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FRp5cdxr9xIKM3zXTXTFgcmGfQphdmnh6INthXnAbgE/edit?usp=sharing
I'll update as signings are announced.
I was looking at that today for Hockey East specifically. As far as official commitments go, Providence got Jonathan Fauchon who was the QMJHL scoring leader. That's the biggest fish jumping into the pond. UNH is essentially rebuilt from the CHL. However, Maine has the most draft picks coming in...

McMahon mentioned multiple teams holding a roster spot open for drafted CHL players once they get marching orders from their new clubs. Maine may be in that camp.
There is a growing school of thought that offensive puck movers are better at preventing goals than stay at home defensemen. Its essentially a continuation of the belief that players with a ton of hits are actually hurting the team because they never have the puck. I'm not 100% sold on the...
Arnott can't really go anywhere now that the portal closed unless his scholarship gets revoked. I also doubt Holt goes pro at this point. He is still looking at significant minutes and probably a letter. Just an embarrassment of riches on the back end. Maybe we run the worlds first 4 D powerplay.
