If this is like men’s hoops, she may use it as a recruiting advantage.

I think this is considered a plus for HCWH, particularly in recruiting. I assume the answer to my question is no, but is their typically any offset in a college coaching contract so that a portion of compensation paid by USA Hockey to a full time college employee reverts to the college in some agreed upon manner?

Anyone have any idea how long this job will keep her away from the HC team? If the tourney is in January, one would think she’d miss at least a few weeks between having to practice before the tourney and then the tourney itself.

I have not seen dates released for 2020-2021, but last year's was between Christmas and New Year's. Meredith Roth was on the coaching staff. Lachapelle has coached various USA hockey camps and festivals, so it is promising to see multiple connections to USA hockey. Can only help our program image and recruiting.

Any idea for how long such a team would practice together before the tourney starts? |

Found an article in a Maine paper that had some more details:
Lachapelle, a 2015 Auburn-Lewiston Sports Hall of Fame inductee who played at Lewiston High School and at Providence College, is leading the U18 team into uncharted waters due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but she’s said plans to run the program like any other year. The IIHF hasn’t named a host site for the Women’s World U18 championships, which is usually held in late December and early January.
“You go full-steam ahead with the original plan, but in the back of your head there might be some secondary plans or a little bit of different ways of having to do selections or get the team to meet each other,” Lachapelle said. “As of right now, we are still planning on the July camp and another camp in August.”
She will be ready to adjust if the Girls U18 Select Player Development Camp that is tentatively scheduled for July 15-21 at Herb Brooks Hockey Center in St. Cloud, Minnesota, is postponed or canceled. There’s also a camp in August where the U18 and U22 teams play their counterparts from Canada.
