About this episode
The episode discusses key moments in the PWHL playoffs, the start of the WNBA season, and various player updates.
Who other than Captain Clutch – Marie-Philip Poulin – to score a triple-overtime goal to win the longest ever PWHL playoff game for Montreal in Game 2 of their semifinal series against Minnesota? Laura Stacey recorded the first-ever PWHL playoff hattrick in Game 1, albeit in a losing cause. Britta Curl misses Game 2 for an illegal suspension to the head, her fourth suspension in two seasons. Good news: Detroit, and possibly Hamilton, are getting PWHL teams. Bad news: here comes another traumatizing expansion draft. Important question: where do you stand on WAG jackets? The WNBA season – which was at one point in doubt – is finally here, and we have a Canadian-based team to cheer for in the Toronto Tempo. Michaela has a hot take on the Golden State Valkyries waiving popular player Kate Martin. Ottawa Rapid FC are off to a roaring start in the 2026 NSL season.
