Take The Quiz

One of the first questions I always get from new fans is “which PWHL team should I root for?” So I dusted off my coding skills and made a fun quiz that you can share with your friends 💕👇

🌠 PWHL Power Rankings

Who I think will win the cup 🏆

  • Boston Fleet

    • This team is built different

    • Captained by Megan Keller🇺🇸, Aerin Frankel in net🇺🇸, Alina Müller🇨🇭 is a clutch star for this team

    • Olympics success: Megan Keller scored gold medal game winner, Alina Müller scored bronze medal game winner

    • Made it to the finals in the 2024 playoffs but BARELY missed the playoffs in 2025.

    • Are they good? Had a coaching change and a really good draft, this team has been on FIRE this year, currently first in the standings

  • Minnesota Frost 🥶

    • Pick this team if you like winning and scoring goals

    • They are the only team to ever have won the Walter Cup, having won in 2024 and 2025

    • Stars: Taylor Heise🇺🇸, Kendall Coyne🇺🇸, Britta Curl🇺🇸 (FYI many fans do not like her due to her collaboration with anti trans organizations but I am mentioning her because she is one of their leading scorers)

    • Are they good? YES. They are really fast, really deep, great at scoring goals and have great goaltending

Could win the cup

  • Montreal Victoire ⚜️

    • Whoever named this team named this team perfectly because this team is ALL about compete

    • Led by captain Marie-Philiip Poulin🇨🇦, the GOAT, as well as Laura Stacey🇨🇦 and Ann-Renee Desbiens🇨🇦 in net

    • Do you believe in the power of love? Poulin and Stacey are married❤️

    • Abby Roque🇺🇸 is SO FREAKING FUN to watch. She’s known for doing the first ever Michigan goal in PWHL history

    • Are they good? This team had disappointing first round exits from the playoffs in 2024 and 2025 but I def think they are a cup contender. They have really good defense this year

  • Seattle Torrent 🌊

    • I still think this could be the best team in the league, but then again, I’m biased as a torrent fan🤣

    • The legend of Hilary Knight🇺🇸 continues. Alex Carpenter🇺🇸 and Hannah Bilka🇺🇸 add dynamic offense

    • Julia Gosling🇨🇦 has been a breakout star for this team. Julia Gosling my GOAT

    • Their goal song is Misery Business

    • Stay tuned for my game previews and game recaps of every torrent game!

    • Olympics success (in 7 games played):

      • Hannah Bilka: 4G 3A 7PTS

      • Alex Carpenter: 3G 3A 6PTS

      • Hilary Knight: 3G 3A 6PTS (game tying goal in gold medal game)

      • Julia Gosling: 3G 2A 5PTS

      • Cayla Barnes 1G (in semifinal)

    • Are they good? Currently last in the standings, but I still think this team has so much potential. Torrent players were amazing in the Olympics, and I hope that momentum continues into the regular season

Dark Horses

  • New York Sirens 🚨

    • Finished in last place in 2024 and 2025

    • Did a complete rebuild this past offseason, focused on exciting, young stars

    • Headlined by Sarah Fillier🇨🇦 (first overall draft pick in 2024), Kristyna Kaltounkova🇨🇿 (first overall draft pick in 2025), and Casey O’Brien🇺🇸 (third overall draft pick in 2025)

    • Are they good? They seem pretty good, they have a lot of potential, and I think they will be especially good next year, as their stars continue to grow in this league

  • Ottawa Charge

    • The ultimate protagonist team

    • Missed the playoffs in 2024 but had a deep playoff run in 2025, upsetting favorites Montreal in the semifinals

    • Headlined by Brianne Jenner🇨🇦, Emily Clark🇨🇦, and Gwyneth Philips🇺🇸 in goal (2025 playoff MVP!)

    • Are they good? This team could be a dark horse. Gwyn Philips can absolutely steal games for this team and Brianne Jenner and Rebecca Leslie are having amazing seasons

Not sure about these teams 😅

  • Toronto Sceptres 🪄

    • This team is microdosing Team Canada - They have the same GM and head coach as Team Canada

    • If you’re a Toronto fan then you know that being a Toronto hockey fan is not for the weak

    • Daryl Watts🇨🇦 is a young superstar forward on this team, Renata Fast🇨🇦 and Ella Shelton🇨🇦 hold it down on defense

    • Emma Maltais🇨🇦 is the main character🎶

    • Are they good? This team has traditionally struggled during the first half of the season and has been able to turn it around in the second half. But I think goaltending is a concern as they have allowed the most goals of any team.

  • Vancouver Goldeneyes 🦆

    • This team is stacked but hasn’t lived up to it’s potential yet

    • Sarah Nurse🇨🇦 is elite. Great goaltending between Emerance Maschmeyer🇨🇦 and Kristen Campbell🇨🇦

    • Highest attendance in the league and only team with their own arena

    • Really cute flying V celly

    • Are they good? In theory yes. We have seen flashes of brilliance from this team. But as a new expansion team, they have struggled to find their groove at times
