Eighteen of 23 players on Canada’s roster played in the CWHL last season.
ESPOO, Finland — The stars of women’s hockey have a loud voice in shaping the future of their league in North America. They vow to use it when the women’s world championship concludes in Finland.
Canadian captain Marie-Philip Poulin, a three-time CWHL MVP with Les Canadiennes de Montreal, says the game’s biggest names from all countries must form a united front when tournament ends on April 13."Obviously there’s going to be two weeks now where we’re going to focus on the world championship. It’s going to be huge for us for the next couple months to come out strong and stick together.
"I think the reason we’re all so devastated our league is gone is because we love it so much," Jenner said. "I think that what’s we’re striving for is one league. It’s disappointing about the CWHL. They put so much work and effort into growing our sport and growing our game.How much of the CWHL the NWHL would be willing to absorb and preserve is one of multiple questions running through players’ heads.
The four-time Olympic gold medallist played for Les Canadiennes before retiring last year and stepping behind the bench. Ouellette is one of Canada’s assistant coaches in Espoo.
