The second season of the Professional Women’s Hockey League will once again feature 13 former Bulldogs from the Minnesota Duluth women’s hockey program. The 2024-25 season gets underway on Saturday.
Some notes about the rosters:
- Former UMD captain Mannon McMahon, a fifth-round pick of the Ottawa Charge, signed a one-year deal following training camp. She is one of four former Bulldogs on the Charge roster, including three former captains.
- Anneke Linser, who played last season in Sweden, signed a one-year deal with the Toronto Sceptres after being drafted in the sixth round in June.
- Catherine Daoust was unsigned going into training camp with the Montreal Victoire after playing there during the inaugural PWHL season. She is coming back in 2025-26 as a reserve.
- Former Bulldogs captain Sydney Brodt won the inaugural PWHL Walter Cup with Minnesota a year ago, but the Frost cut her this week and she has not been picked up by anyone. Brodt was only on a one-year deal and went into training camp this fall unsigned. She missed the start of last season, and a large portion of the year, with an injury.
