The Seattle Torrent have placed their second member of the USA gold medal Olympic roster on LTIR, this time moving Hannah Bilka to long term injured reserve.
The Seattle Torrent have placed Hannah Bilka on long-term injured reserve (LTIR).
She joined the LTIR after the team also placed captain Hilary Knight on LTIR. Both played at the 2026 Olympics winning gold with USA but were unable to return to PHWL action. Bilka suffered an upper-body injury while representing USA.
In 14 games this season, the 24-year-old Bilka had four goals and five assists.
At the Olympics, she tied the tournament lead in goals with four and was named an Olympic All-Star.
To replace Bilka on the Seattle Torrent roster, Seattle signed 2025 PWHL Draft pick Jada Habisch. The team selected the 23-year-old in the fourth round of the PWHL Draft but Habisch did not make the roster out of camp instead being signed as a reserve.
