The balance of power is shifting in the PWHL. How do Vancouver & Seattle fit in?

On today’s Women’s Hockey Report, Erica L. Ayala & Rachel Donner look at the latest PWHL contract extensions and ask if there would have been room for Goaltender Klara Peslarova in the league.  Then we use Rachel’s interview of PWHL Vancouver GM Cara Gardner Morey to see where we think PWHL Vancouver & PWHL Seattle sit in the power structure of the PWHL and how she built the team so far. And how will the rivalries develop? Will it be Seattle vs Vancouver or Seattle & Vancouver vs the Original Six (Minnesota Frost, Toronto Sceptres, Ottawa Charge, Montreal Victoire, NY Sirens & Boston Fleet).Follow us on Bluesky social!Erica L AyalaRachel DonnerWomen’s Hockey Report on TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@womens_hockey_report Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.
