William Hartmann's agent also happens to represent gridiron football cornerback Byron Blackwell, who plays in the Developmental Sim Football League for the Dallas Birddogs. The two players train together in the offseason due to the shared affiliation, so they've gotten a chance to try out each other's leagues. If Hartmann were to transfer to the ISFL for a season, he'd likely slide in as a slot receiver or a safety. He's not afraid to throw the body, has pretty decent speed and hands, and sees the game of hockey very well, so it's reasonable to assume that those skills would transfer to the gridiron. The only downside is that he's short and wouldn't work much as an outside receiver, and doesn't have the bulk to play some of the tougher positions, but his grit and physicality would be a good fit. Meanwhile, Blackwell's build and speed screams left-winger all the way. The 6'1", 200-pound corner excels with his speed and hands, and put up a DPOY-contention season this past year in the DSFL with 5 picks and 15 passes defended, including two pick-sixes. The only downside for Blackwell: learning to skate.
