BIG news, hockey fans.

We knew the NWHL would be expanding sometime soon but this is a positive sign of what can be next to come.

Hailey Salvian expanded on Marisa’s tweet, adding:

Its been reported that the team will be led by Digit Murphy.

Murphy previously coached the CWHL Boston Blades and KRS in China. It is my understanding she is tapping into those rosters, among others, in her recruitment process.

Checklist! We got:

2 (3?) Players
A coach
a City
a fanbase

Ladies and agents, we’re going to have ourselves a successful hockey team.

As I said, we’ve known that the NWHL was going to expand and Toronto was in the original plans. Now that the plan is in action, this in exciting. The return of some ex-CWHL players will be delightful. It’s been almost a year since that league folded and having them back to playing will be fantastic.

The story is still developing but we have nothing but time to wait for more details.
