There will be some great games in this conference! Tough to see Anoka a number one pick, but that is just me.

Here you go
Blaine
Centennial
Maple Grove
Elk River
Anoka
Coon Rapids
Andover
North Metro
Champlin

As for impact players, I will only comment on your Tornado star defense. Haller is great, but she would be far more effictive if she got off the ice once in a while to rest up. There is more to the team than just her!

My prediction is:
Blaine
Coon Rapids
Centennial
Maple Grove
Anoka
Elk River
Andover
North Metro
Champlin

I see this conference as a conference of parity all the way through. If someone gets the order correct they better buy a lottery ticket. I don't see any "bad" team in the group but the converse is true also without any "stud" teams.

This conference is pretty strong, top to bottom, but perhaps without a super team that is dominating. Current standings are here:

IMO Maple Grove has been a surprise this year, and has a very good chance to win the conference. It could come down to the last game of the regular season against Centennial.

It's a toss up between:
Centennial
Irondale
Blaine

Centennial has solid D and the experience of playing in OT but lost to Blaine 2x this season-if they can get by MV. In my opinion they are not as strong as last years team so maybe not such a threat.

Blaine beat Centennial 2x this season but lost to quite a few teams that they should of beat if they were Centennial's caliber-if they can get by Irondale. In my opinion they made it a point to beat their neighbor Centennial but can't get it done otherwise-rollercoaster.

Irondale is a threat.
