Overview

  • Curl-Salemme, 25, posted nine goals and 15 points as a rookie and added three goals in seven playoff games, including two in Game 2 of the Walter Cup Final.
  • General manager Melissa Caruso praised her on-ice impact and community presence, and Curl-Salemme said she is excited to pursue another Walter Cup in Minnesota.
  • Only goaltender Maddie Rooney also has a contract that runs through the 2027–28 season with the Frost.
  • Her physical style has brought value and led to three suspensions, including a one-game ban in the 2025 semifinals for a hit on Toronto defender Renata Fast.
  • Minnesota, winner of the league’s first two Walter Cups, opens the new season on Nov. 21 against the Toronto Sceptres.
