She would look great in teal! Just sayin'
The PWHL Draft is today! UConn fans should expect Tia Chan’s name to be called in the 2nd or 3rd round and Kyla Josifovic’s name to be called in the 5th or 6th round. Whatever team picks these two will be so lucky for the players and people they will get! 📸: UConn Athletics

Can Matos reach for the stars? Absolutely! Taylor McQuillin is a 5-foot-8 professional softball pitcher for the Chicago Bandits in the @theAUSLofficial (AUSL), and like Jenica is legally blind. The two of them should definitely hook up!
Congrats to Cheshire softball’s Jenica Matos, Molly Fleming, and Jordan McCue on playing in the Senior All-Star Game! #ctsb

Fascinating possible subplot(s): Does Issy reunite with Filly? Or does Eden reunite with Casey? Or none of the above? Great work @ChrisSinclairrr!
When I started Rinkside Rundown over two years ago, a guest like Issy Wunder could have only been a dream. Fast forward, and there I was, having one of the most memorable conversations I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to cheer Issy on as she heads to the PWHL Draft today!

Wee Woo indeed! Who can forget @PWHL_NewYork GM Pascal Daoust's absolute stunner last June in making Casey O'Brien a Siren with a trade at No. 3! What magic is in store for us tonight? We shall see!
WEE DRAFT DAY WOO 🚨 Tune in TONIGHT for the 2026 PWHL Entry Draft on @ScrippsSports and the PWHL YouTube Channel.

Connecticut girls' teams have repped New England at the @LLSBWorldSeries for multiple years, and high school girls' softball teams consistently rank among the best in the nation! So why not bring an @theAUSLofficial team to a state with a championship pedigree in women's sports!

It's going to be magical, for sure! Looking forward to the master draftsman working the room and the draft board!
Tonight is the #PWHL draft I'm really curious to see what New York Sirens' GM Pascal Daoust does with the 7th pick. Do they take BPA? Draft Goaltender Andrea Brandli? Trade Up or Down? It's going to be fascinating for New York

Fantastic article and a must read by @IanKennedyCK!
Laila Edwards will be the highest selected Black woman ever at the PWHL Draft. "That's the number one thing...just to be able to create a space where everyone feels welcome. No matter what you look like, who you love, what you believe in..." thehockeynews.com/womens/pwh… #PWHLDraft

My sentiments completely! We have many outstanding college softball facilities that can easily be acceptable like those in Durham, NC (Duke) where the @theAUSLofficial Blaze play! It would give the league a great footprint in the Northeast!
Hey @GovNedLamont what will it take for @theAUSLofficial to be in CT? Think about it, a pro 🥎 team in the nutmeg state?? The excitement is there, it’s just waiting to cheer on a team!

And as the Sirens' columnist I'll make sure each and every one of you receives banner coverage and all the attention you and the entire roster deserves! Together, we'll turn this negative into a huge positive!

The @PWHL_NewYork Sirens have become the talk of North America in a loving and caring way that I haven't ever seen as a journalist. People who normally might not support a sports team are rallying around them! If I were a free agent, I'm giving a lot of thought to this movement!

Dear @abby_roque, please come back home to where it all started for you three years ago! You are loved in New York! What an addition you would be with @PWHL_NewYork's Filly, Kalty and Casey!

Would love to get @BrodieBz's take on this!
No team in the PWHL was handed the multi-layered impact that the New York Sirens will face due to league decisions favouring expansion teams over their own rules, including the PWHL's unexpected and unexplained change to the draft order. thehockeynews.com/womens/pwh… #PWHL

I love @PWHL_NewYork Sirens' fans! I couldn't imagine covering any other team in the PWHL and I'm dead serious! The passion and dedication to your team is the best I have seen as a journalist, even better than the Florida Panthers I covered five years ago! Never stop!!!

MAJOR BREAKING: The draft order has been emailed to media!!!!!

OPINE: Every @PWHL_NewYork player on the 2026-27 roster should be laser focused on these newbie teams trying to rip the Sirens apart. When the puck drops against these clubs, accept nothing but complete victory! A non-playoff team (3 years) losing six players must be a rally cry!

There was talk of @wpbl_official teams visiting their four actual cities (NY, Boston, LA and SF) at some point in July for a showcase game or two BEFORE the season in Springfield. It would be great marketing for the 2027 season. A little strange that there's been no further word.

Watching @ABC7NY in New York right now and every corner of the city is like Times Square on New Year's Eve! I've never seen anything like it and the ticker tape parade is going to be insane!!
