That is a hilarious comment..."Graduation happened?" who graduated in 2012 that made a big enough impact on EP Varsity in 2012 to cause this deficit?

The thing that DID happen is that 8 class of 2014 kids have transferred into Eden Prairie in the last few years; ironically they are all in the HS hockey program (and none are on JG;)
Soooo true!!
Class of 2014 has been a strong year for EP hockey players since squirts and won state as bantams...but @ HS instead of developing and rewarding EP kids; transfers took their place and chemistry and hometown loyalty has gone out the window...

I wouldn't diminish their contribution. No superstars, but an underapreciated group of very solid contributers that every team needs.
