Buffalo Beauts
Going into the offseason, the Beauts needed defense, but now need to deal with the retirements of forwards Jordan Juron and Emma Ruggiero. They have seven picks so there’s room to experiment, and GM Nate Oliver has been on top of things.
They traded the top pick, which, in a year where there’s not really any standouts, makes sense for the value. The Beauts have gone for Adrian players before, and forward Brooke Schembri should be available.
Mercyhurst defender Claire Werysnki was at their free agent camp earlier this month. So was former Ohio State forward Kate Maroney.
