Locked On NHL - Daily Podcast On The National Hockey LeagueAbout this episode
Programming note: We recorded today’s show prior to the announcement of Princeton University Women’s Hockey Head Coach Cara Morey as PWHL Vancouver’s first GM. On today’s Women’s Hockey Report, Erica L Ayala and Rachel Donner break down the first two games of the PWHL finals between the Ottawa Charge & Minnesota Frost. We get into the shot stats and how the team’s style of play is leading to the low scoring defensive battle. Plus we highlight standout players Jocelyn Larocque, Rebecca Leslie, and Emily Clark of the Ottawa Charge, and the questionable but key scoring of Britta Curl as well as the tandem goaltending of the Frost by Nicole Hensley and Maddie Rooney. Then we look at the possibilities for the new PWHL Seattle expansion team with the announcement of Meghan Turner as their first ever GM. Will that mean that Hilary Knight is on the move to Seattle from the Boston Fleet? Finally we discuss the finalists for the PWHL Rookie of the Year award in Sarah Fillier, Gwyneth Philips, Jennifer Gardiner, as well as the Billie Jean King MVP award in Hilary Knight, Renata Fast, Marie-Philip Poulin.
