The PWHL's six teams announced training camp rosters this week following the October 10 deadline to submit rosters.
Some of the more intriguing names involved include German national team member Laura Kluge who is heading to Toronto, and Czech national team starter Klára Peslarová in Boston.
Montreal Victoire
“This announcement proves that the season is upon us, and we are very excited to see all these talented players assembled on the ice. We sense even more excitement as we approach this second season. Our interactions with our fans have also showed us that they are very much looking forward for this season to get under way,” said Montréal Victoire General Manager Danièle Sauvageau.

Boston Fleet
“As we enter our second season, we’re excited about the depth and talent in our training camp roster,” said Boston Fleet General Manager Danielle Marmer. “We believe we’ve done a good job identifying talent through the draft, free agency, and camp invites to create a highly competitive environment. Like last year, we’ve intentionally kept the group smaller to give each player a real opportunity to earn a spot. With a shorter camp than last season, we recognize that there’s limited time for players to showcase their skills and character, so we were very selective with our invitations. That said, we’re confident in the group we’ve assembled and look forward to the opportunity to further strengthen our team.”
Forwards: Kelly Babstock, Jillian Dempsey, Amanda Pelkey. Defenders: Maude Poulin-Labelle. Goaltenders: Klára Peslarová, Cami Kronish
New York Sirens
“As we begin our training camp, it’s both exciting and a privilege to bring together such leadership, talent, and passion on the same ice - all having one goal to earn a spot with the New York Sirens for the upcoming season,” said Sirens General Manager Pascal Daoust. “After more than six months of dedicated individual preparation, we are eager to see the progress and new potential that will help us build the strongest collective team, united in our pursuit of excellence and the goal—the Walter Cup.”
Forwards : Alexa Grushow, Paetyn Levis, Savannah Norcross, Madison Packer, Kayla Vespa. Defenders : Taylor Baker, Madison Bizal, Olivia Zafuto
Minnesota Frost
“On behalf of the entire Minnesota Frost organization, we are ready for Season Two to get underway as our athletes make their return to Saint Paul in mid-November,” said Frost General Manager Melissa Caruso. “We've got a strong core of returning players and some new faces who will be competing for the opportunity to win a spot our roster - it will be a competitive Training Camp. We can't wait to get back on the ice, wear our new logo, finalize our team and defend the Walter Cup.”
Forwards : Sydney Brodt, Brooke Bryant, Claire Butorac, Kaitlyn O’Donohoe. Defenders : Charlotte Akervik, Melissa Channell. Goaltenders : Lauren Bench, Lucy Morgan.
