So my first attempt at where this roster is now that the transfer portal is open. Anyone in bold Italics is newly added. (since I last did this) I'm leaving Kroll as a freshman in the 2026 class for now, since he started in the second half of last year.

26/27 roster

Defense (10):
Seniors: Anthony Dowd, Sean Kilcullen
Juniors: Daniel Buchbinder, Dominic Payne
Sophomore: Tnias Mathurin, Nate Misskey, Josh Mori
Freshmen: Ryan Kroll, Stephen Grumley, Carsen Olsen

Forwards (17):
Seniors: Jaiden Moriello, Jan Vaarwerk
Juniors: Chris Delaney, Jacob MacDonald, Libor Nemec, Dominick Rivelli
Sophomores: David Adaszynski, Cole Lonsdale, Dalyn Wakely
Freshmen: Abzal Alibek, Harrison Franssen, Easton Jacobs, Charles Kresl, Joseph McGraw, Kolin Sisson, Misha Volotovskii, Nicholas Wellenreiter

Goalies (3):
Senior: Cole Moore
Junior:
Sophomore: Austin Elliot, Nikola Goich
Freshman:

This leaves us at 30 on the roster, with the class breakdown being:
Seniors: 5
Juniors: 6
Sophomores: 8
Freshmen: 11

27/28 roster

Defense (14):
Seniors: Daniel Buchbinder, Dominic Payne
Juniors: Tnias Mathurin, Nate Misskey, Josh Mori,

I wonder how soon they will need to get down to the roster limit of 26. How many of players who entered the portal were Designated Student-Athletes? They don't count toward the roster limit of 26, they also take that designation with them.

It sounds like the coaches are trying to get the roster limit increased to 28.
