So You Want to Get Into the PWHL? Start Here.

Monica and Sara

This week’s episode is a quick guide to the Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) — and a check-in on what’s been an electric few weeks for women’s sports. Consider it your crash course in the PWHL: where to start, who to follow, and why this league is already changing the game for women’s hockey.

Monica and Sara kick things off with Gotham FC’s underdog championship win in the NWSL, before jumping into a recap of the PWHL’s third season, expansion updates, and what made the Seattle Torrent’s sold-out home opener such a big deal.

They also talk about the energy building around the league, the growing fanbase, and why this is the perfect time to start following if you’re new to hockey. Between record-breaking attendance, Brandi Carlile singalongs, and fans in Kraken jerseys cheering their hearts out, the excitement for the PWHL is only getting louder.

They also get into:
 🏆 Gotham FC’s championship run and why they’ll always root for an underdog
 🏒 The PWHL’s new Seattle Torrent and Vancouver Golden Eyes
 🎟️ Record-breaking crowds and what they tell us about the future of women’s sports
