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.
LMAO, thank you for giving me such a full outburst of genuine laughter with your last sentence! So eloquently put!
