Chanreet Bassi, a 2025 PWHL Draft selection of the Vancouver Goldeneyes has signed in Sweden with the SDHL's Linköping HC. "I am really happy to sign for LHC. I am looking forward to getting started with the team and meeting everyone on the team. The leaders were very welcoming and it felt right for me as a player. The city itself seems really nice and is about the same size as my hometown in Canada," Bassi said in a translated team news release [https://www.lhc.eu/article/szmat6q-30c01/view]. The 24-year-old was a three time Canada West First Team All-Star with the University of British Columbia where she scored a career high 32 points in 28 games. "With some injuries and Sara Hjalmarsson leaving for the PWHL, we needed to review our offense," said manager Sabina Eriksson. "Chanreet is a right-handed forward, a so-called playmaker who has scored a lot of points in her last few seasons. At this point in the season, it is important to find the right character who will fit well into our close-knit group. Chanreet is a player who works hard, is smart on the court and will come in with good energy. I look forward to seeing her on the big ice and welcoming her to the LHC."
