    2024-25 PWHL season

    I am a little surprised Knight is not protected. But it does seem debatable whether she'll be signed by an expansion team, as they would have to match her salary in Boston on the 3rd year of her guaranteed 3-year deal. Müller was injured for some time early in the season, and this may be part of...

    2024-25 PWHL season

    It was sad as well to see Spooner and Nurse, TO's scoring leaders last season, drop off this season, at least partly because of injuries. Spooner missed 16 games, and Nurse 9. And Toronto's bad record in the playoffs continues.

    2024-25 PWHL season

    All three goals scored in game 4 came from passes from behind the goal line, for a shot in close to the net. And in a sign of parity between the teams, all games in the Finals ended 2-1 in OT.

    2024-25 PWHL season

    The Frost have repeated as PWHL Walter Cup champions! They won game 4 in overtime 2-1, at home, on a goal by Liz Schepers, after Tereza Vanišová had tied up the game 1-1 in the 3rd. Rooney was in net for her 5th playoff win this year. Philips was named Kloss Playoff MVP, with a .952 save...

    2024-25 PWHL season

    2nd intermission of the PWHL Finals game 4, and Minnesota is up 1-0. The announcers are going to be talking to Mark Johnson in the break "to break it all down."

    2024-25 PWHL season

    Yeah, it looks like current thinking on The Hockey News is that Ottawa will probably protect Philips and not Maschmeyer. I also left out Renata Fast, whom Toronto will probably protect.

    2024-25 PWHL season

    I think that we can rest assured that Boston will protect Knight during the Exclusive Signing Window and Expansion Draft! Yes, she would be eligible otherwise to be signed to an expansion team, as they can sign or draft anyone who is not on a team's "protected list" during those windows. Her...

    2024-25 PWHL season

    Ottawa takes game 1 of the finals (best-of-5), 2-1 in OT, on a game-winning goal by Emily Clark. The Minnesota goal that tied it 1-1 in the 3rd period, as well as Clark's goal, capitalized on small mistakes or miscues. On the 3rd-period goal, Gwyneth Philips was pressured behind her net and...

    2024-25 PWHL season

    My initial thought is that players from this year's top programs - like OSU, Wisconsin, Clarkson, Cornell, Minnesota, UMD, and Colgate - are probably going to go early in the draft, largely because of their excellent preparation. Kaley Doyle and Sanni Ahola look like especially good possible...

    Thanks! This gives new meaning to "She put a lot of mustard on that shot."

    2024-25 PWHL season

    In the two semifinal series, the underdogs lead. Ottawa leads 2-1 over Montréal (though Montréal won the longest game in PWHL history on Monday, 4ot), and Minnesota leads 2-1 over Toronto (Minnesota's wins including the total-highest-scoring PWHL game ever, 7-5, also on Sunday). The speed and...

    I looked around for some of this info. It looks like USA Gymnastics enrollment of girls was recently about 138,000, while USA Hockey was about 73,000 (in the 2023-24 Final Registration Report).

    Wisconsin Women's Hockey 2024-2025

    Yes, that is a good question; they are working on checking in both those regards. The PWHL had instruction from ex-NHL player Ryan Getzlaf in the preseason camps this past November (per this Athletic article from December 2024). Executive Jayna Hefford sent out various instructional videos. The...

    Wisconsin Women's Hockey 2024-2025

    She was suspended for one game twice this season. Each time was a minor penalty, and she was suspended a few days later. Tereza Vanišová on the Ottawa Charge is the most penalized player the past two years, which I think makes sense, though I haven't seen much of Ottawa's play lately.

    2024-25 PWHL season

    The PWHL announced this morning that it's also expanding to Seattle in 2025-26! The league will accept season ticket deposits starting 11am Pacific today. According to the league, their colors will be Emerald Green and Cream. They will play at Climate Pledge Arena and practice at Kraken...

    Shelfit recently posted on the Scores thread about the announcers for Frozen Four streams; I don't think Shelfit has gone anywhere.

    ECAC '24-25: Who rebuilds? Who reloads?

    Cornell loses to OSU 4-2 in the semifinals, ending their season 25-5-5 and placed 4th in Pairwise behind Minnesota. To speak to the title of this thread, Cornell ended up rebuilding, rather than "reloading," but their results were better than any ECAC team that may have reloaded. Coach Doug...

    2024-25 PWHL season

    Also today (3/16): Frölunda defeats Luleå in a 3-game sweep for the SDHL crown. Luleå had not even lost a playoff game since 2021! And Frölunda's crowd set a record for women's hockey in Sweden, 8,442. (Story, Laura Rollins.) Frölunda has been backstopped by Princeton alumna Stephanie Neatby...
