PWHL Stars Set For Outdoor Skates, Pride Game, Showcase, Skills and More in Toronto

The PWHL’s stars are coming to Toronto, and it’s for more than the league’s 3-on-3 Showcase at NHL All-Star Thursday.

Thursday morning before the Showcase, Team King and Team Kloss will practice outdoors at Nathan Phillips Square from 8am to 9:15am. According to the PWHL’s communications, “All 24 players will take to the ice in their PWHL team jerseys on the outdoor rink before the Canadian Tire PWHL 3-on-3 Showcase at Scotiabank Arena.”

That night, the PWHL will compete in a 3-on-3 Showcase, beginning at approximately 8:00pm. The 24-players in attendance will play a 20-minute game.

The following day, PWHL Toronto will practice outdoors again at Nathan Phillips Square from 12:30-1:45pm. They are scheduled to host Minnesota the following day.

On Saturday, PWHL players Aerin Frankel (Boston), Savannah Harmon (Ottawa), and Alina Muller (Boston) will attend the NHL All-Star Youth Hockey Jamboree Celebration. At the event, close to 100 youth will learn hockey for the first time as part of the NHL/NHLPA First Shift and Learn to Play programs.

Simultaneously Erin Ambrose, Alex Carpenter, Emily Clark, and Emerance Maschmeyer will participate in the NHL All-Star Pride Cup. Hosted by the NHL, Scotiabank, and Pride Tape, the event will feature the Toronto Gay Hockey Association, “one of the largest LGBTQ+ hockey associations in the world, for a ball hockey game, with players competing for the Pride Cup trophy.” Brian Burke executive director of the PWHLPA will coach one of the teams.

Finally, on Friday afternoon, Brianne Jenner, Hilary Knight, and Abby Roque will attend the 2024 NHL All-Star Creator Skate at Nathan Phillips Square.
