Picked byPWHL Minnesota

The 2023–24 PWHL season is the first season of operation of the Professional Women's Hockey League, and began play on January 1, 2024. Six teams compete during the inaugural season, located in Montreal, Toronto, New York, Boston, Ottawa, and Minneapolis–Saint Paul. The season will culminate with a two-round best-of-five playoff including the top four teams to determine the season champion.

League business[edit]

  • On September 18, 2023, the inaugural PWHL Draft took place. It was a 15-round draft, with the initial order determined by a lottery, and subsequent rounds following a "snake format" in which the team who selected last in the previous round selected first in the next round, and the selection order was reversed.[3] The draft order was announced on September 1, with the lottery won by Minnesota, followed by Toronto, Boston, New York, Ottawa, and Montreal.[7] The league allowed players to apply for "compassionate circumstances" in order to stay in their home markets, with those approved eligible to be drafted only by their home market teams; the list of approved players will not be publicly released.[8] Taylor Heise was picked first overall by Minnesota.[9]
  • On October 25, 2023, PWHL Holdings, LLC filed potential names for the six teams with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. According to The Athletic, the potential names were Boston Wicked, Minnesota Superior, Montreal Echo, New York Sound, Ottawa Alert, and Toronto Torch. PWHL Holdings had previously filed trademarks for the league name and logos.[10] However, the league ultimately opted against naming the teams ahead of the season; for the 2024 season, the teams will be known by their city names, and each wear jerseys featuring a diagonal wordmark of their home city.[11]
  • Training camps opened on November 15, with final rosters confirmed on December 11. Final rosters include 23 roster players and 3 reserve players.[12]
  • From December 3 to 7, all six teams congregated for a pre-season evaluation camp in Utica, New York, which included scrimmages at the Utica University Nexus Center.[13] PWHL executive Jayna Hefford stated that the unified camp enabled the league to experiment and provided an opportunity for team and player education around issues like safety and doping.[13]
  • On January 15, it was announced that 24 PWHL players would participate in the 2024 NHL All-Star weekend in Toronto, playing a 3-on-3 showcase game on February 1.[14]

Minnesota Charlie Burggraf Ken Klee On December 27, 2023, one week before Minnesota's inaugural game, the team announced that Burggraf had decided to step away from the team, citing family reasons.[15] Burggraf had been named the team's first head coach on September 15, 2023,[16] and coached the team to a perfect 3–0 record in the preseason. Klee, most recently the head coach of the U-16 Colorado Thunderbirds of the Tier 1 Elite Hockey League, was immediately named head coach.[17] Klee was previously assistant coach for the Syracuse Crunch of the American Hockey League, as well as head coach for Team USA, where they won gold at the 2015 and 2016 Women's World Championship and the 2015 and 2016 4 Nations Cup.

All-Star Showcase[edit]

On January 15, 2024, the PWHL along with the National Hockey League (NHL) announced the Canadian Tire PWHL 3-on-3 Showcase, which was hosted by the NHL on February 1, 2024 at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto as part of the NHL's All-Star Game.[28][29]

24 players from all six PWHL teams competed in one 20-minute game. PWHL Special Advisor Cassie Campbell-Pascall and New Jersey Devils Director of Player Development, Meghan Duggan served as coaches. The two teams were named in honor of former tennis players and current PWHL advisory board members Billie Jean King and Ilana Kloss.[30] Each team was also accompanied by celebrity coaches with former figure skater Tessa Virtue joining Team King and basketball player Jonquel Jones joining Team Kloss.[31]

New York’s Micah Zandee-Hart was also selected to play but was unable to participate due to injury.[30]
