Here's the most recent additions to the list.
Ottawa Continues To Add Depth To Camp Roster
After grabbing some of the biggest names remaining on the market as free agent invites to their camp, Ottawa continues to add some of the top remaining names on the market to their camp roster. Connecticut Whale veteran blueliner Tori Howran, 25, joined the list of players headed to Ottawa's camp. Howran is from Bancroft, Ontario, just over two hours from Ottawa. The former New Hampshire captain and Canadian U-18 national team member played three seasons in the PHF with the Whale last season recording seven points in 24 games.
With incredible forward depth already at camp, Ottawa is also bringing PWHPA members and Colgate alumni Rosalie Demers and Malia Schneider to camp up front. Demers played for Team Harvey's, while Schneider was a member of Team Sonnet last season. Another young prospect headed to Ottawa's camp is Liliane Perreault. The 23-year-old finished her NCAA career with Mercyhurst this spring, where as captain she scored 18 goals and 33 points in 37 games last season.
More Pride Alumni Headed To Boston
After already bringing in Kaleigh Fratkin, who reportedly has been offered a contract to join Boston, along with fellow Boston Pride alumni McKenna Brand and Sammy Davis, Boston has added another former Pride forward Taylor Wenczkowski. Wenczkowski, 26, had nine points in 24 games in her third season with the Pride last season. The former University of New Hampshire captain will be in tight competition for depth roles on Boston's forward corps.
New York Brings In All-Canadian Blueliner
In what could turn into a savvy depth addition, New York is bringing defender Carley Olivier to camp. Olivier, 24, spent one season in the NCAA before moving to USports hockey where last season she was named an All-Canadian playing for Waterloo. Olivier notched 23 points in 23 games from the blueline and also helped Canada win gold at the 2023 Universaide recording seven points in seven games. Whether it's the Howie Draper effect, or simply scouting reports, New York will have a decided USports feel at their training camp.
