Recently some important news regarding the NWHL's offseason surfaced.

The New York Riveters and the three other NWHL teams will bid on free agents and attempt to bring back their key players (all players in the league signed one-year contracts with their respective clubs for the 2015-16 inaugural season) for the league's second season when the NWHL's free agency period opens on May 1st.
The question that faces Dani Ryan and the Riveters organization now will be which players that proved to be valuable assets from last season's team can be brought back and which free agents from both within and outside of the NWHL the team should pursue.
