The PWHL's exclusive re-signing window opened on June 1, and the list of free agents is long (about 80 in all). Will most re-sign with their current teams? It sounds like at least a few of them want to test the open market, but without a lot of dollars available, will teams be able to attract them?
We look at the current contracts and free agents for each of the six teams and try to guess who would be in the group of "must sign" players. The draft takes place June 10, and then the free agent market is open to all.

I don't know if they'll do it in the this window or not, but I think Minnesota is going to sign Channell for at least another year. I've been watching her play all year and to me she's a great stay-at-home with enough speed to get to a block and enough flexibility to keep blocking. Earlier in the season I think she was a lot more tentative, but I think she's one of the big reasons the shot count was so low in the playoffs.

So, my only issue with resigning Fratkin is that she takes WAY too many penalties. She has over double the amount of penalty minutes as the next person. I feel like if she can control that she’d be a fantastic defender.

I'm excited to see how cutthroat this offseason will get. I think it will really clue the fans in how serious this is. When there is more money to play with, but with a salary cap obviously, things will get really interesting. Not gonna lie I fell off for a bit but I'm reinvigorated to get even more acquainted than I already was at the start of the season. I think the offseason, for a bit, can be every bit as exciting as the in-season campaign as well. Especially under these first year circumstances with so much parity in the skill levels. I promise to be tuning in more frequently.

I appreciate it - and yes, wit this influx of talent, the quality will get better and better. And we might see players make choices about where to play, and rivalries get really heated.

Thanks for the great summary! I'm looking forward to seeing how it all pans out. If Minnesota doesn't get Cava back I'm going to be heartbroken!

@gamedayhockey Ай бұрын

I think Cava wants to stay and I can't really see them not agreeing to terms. It's Abby Boreen being drafted by another team that you should worry about!

@cavorter Ай бұрын

@gamedayhockey Though one of the questions with Cava getting signed is what are they going to do about Greco? I think she was probably just good enough this season to warrant another year, but does Cava has a good bargaining position to keep their GF on the team if Greco is on the bubble? I don't imagine Darwitz will be thinking in those terms but...

This was really well done. Love your Chanel! Totally agree with your assessment of Ottawa. For me I’m a little more urgent with getting Boyd signed though. She’s a great puck moving defender that can eat lots of minutes. If she stays healthy

@gamedayhockey 26 күн бұрын

I agree, she’s a very useful defender! Love her personality as well.

100% agree number one priority for MIN is Cava. Will be interesting to see if they "draft" Abby Boreen. Schepers, Butorac, and Brodt are my next 3 likely re-signs. Case can be made for Kunin as well. Did you intend to put Barnes "over" Buchbinder? she is on a 2 year.

@gamedayhockey 29 күн бұрын

Well, not really, but Barnes would definitely play top pair minutes.

I see you have Britta Curl going to NY. I heard she will not be drafted because of the culture the PWHL is trying to foster. It will be hard for a team to draft a player that has "liked" many posts on social media that are hateful toward LGBTQ people. Hard for a team to justify signing her without her making amends...So far she has not done that.

@cavorter Ай бұрын

Completely agreed. I'm worried about Minnesota picking her up, which is going to be a problem for me and a large and vocal set of their fans.

@gamedayhockey Ай бұрын

That is definitely an issue. I would assume whatever GM drafts her would have to know what she plans to do. It might mean she isn’t drafted at all?

@gamedayhockey 28 күн бұрын

Hearing rumbles that she's definitely on the radar for teams in round 1-2

You didn't really touch on who Ottawa would draft like the other teams

@gamedayhockey 29 күн бұрын

Sorry about that - Ottawa is a hard one to predict, but I have a feeling they will take Serdachny at #2. They need a puck-moving defender, and some more grit up front. I would grab Pejsova in the second round if I were Mike Hirshfeld.
