    2025-26 PWHL season

    The Athletic and The Hockey News have been reporting that Detroit pre-agreed to trade a first-round draft pick to Las Vegas in exchange for Knight. So if that is true, she will only be signed to Las Vegas til next week's draft, and reportedly she wanted to be in Detroit between the two. (So much...

    2025-26 PWHL season

    Thank you for this interesting info - yes, it sounds like in this case one person leaving creates a notable gap, to a larger extent than would be the case with a college coach taking a PWHL role for example. At least, per a comment on facebook on the Rochester news article (I couldn't get into...

    2025-26 PWHL season

    Troy Ryan "named GM and head coach of San Jose." There was talk of Ken Klee being interested in doing something like this for Minnesota (and briefly he basically did when Darwitz left before the next GM started).

    The PWHL has confirmed the San Jose team as the 4th and final expansion team of this year! Colors are orange, blue, and white, and home games to be played at SAP Center.

    2025-26 PWHL season

    Yes - the league owns all of the teams and seems to hire the GMs as early as possible in the process.

    2025-26 PWHL season

    PWHL has now made official its expansion to: Hamilton (Colors gold, maroon, and cream; playing games at TD Coliseum; and with a press conference tomorrow morning.) Vegas (Colors green and golden yellow; playing games at T-Mobile Arena; with a press conference later today.) So that is two more...

    PWHL Detroit is the newest team for 2026-27 as of this morning's announcement! They will play at Little Caesars Arena. Their primary colors are black and silver, with white as a secondary color and red as an accent, per the press release - more branding probably to be released in the fall, per...

    2 games left in the season for all teams, as of this afternoon... Montréal, Boston, and Minnesota have clinched playoff spots, while Ottawa, Toronto, and NY are competing for the last one. The two expansion teams Vancouver and Seattle are eliminated from playoff contention. Seattle has 1 point...

    2025-26 PWHL season

    It seems in articles or interviews that the players say that they want to have checking, but they also allude to inconsistent officiating. In some ways the issue may be similar to questions about what is "illegal bodychecking" in the college women's game. There are evidently more things the...

    2025-26 PWHL season

    Yes, this was an excellent article, thanks for sharing it -- and having this sell-out game at MSG is an excellent development for the Sirens! I was there and greatly enjoyed the atmosphere.... There was a loud cheer for Hilary Knight as her name was called early in the Seattle introductions...

    2025-26 PWHL season

    The Sirens ended up losing 3-1 -- after they gave up 3 goals to the Victoire early in the 3rd, including 2 by Dubois and 1 by Stacey. I only saw the 3rd period but thought that the Sirens looked disorganized then, especially in the first part of the period. The injuries are frustrating and...

    2026 Frozen Four

    It wouldn't play on espn+ for me without me having a cable tv provider (which I don't); so I had to get a one day pass on Sling Orange. Jumping through a lot of hoops but saw most of the game!

    Patty Kazmaier 2026

    Regarding years spent after high school, Murphy and Harvey both centralized during college(?) with team USA for the Olympics in 2021-22. Murphy also played with UofM in 2020-21, though Harvey was still in high school. I am not saying Olympic centralization is bad or good or anything else, and...

    Transfer Portal 2026

    Tracking down a little more info - Here is what the NEWHA says on their X/twitter profile: "The New England Women's Hockey Alliance is an NCAA National Collegiate women's ice hockey league made up of Division I/II institutions." Bemidji women's hockey quick facts, meanwhile, says "Affiliation...

    Transfer Portal 2026

    I'm not sure, but I think that there is an idea that teams like Bemidji and St. Cloud "play up" at DI in the WCHA whereas Franklin Pierce et al. are in a "DI/DII conference" with NEWHA?
