Overview
- Ottawa acquires Michela Cava, Brooke McQuigge and Emma Greco, while Vancouver receives Mannon McMahon, Anna Meixner and rookie Anna Shokhina.
- The swap sets a PWHL record for the most players moved in a single trade during the league’s third season.
- All three of Ottawa’s additions own Walter Cup titles from stints with the Minnesota Frost, adding scoring, versatility and defensive stability per GM Mike Hirshfeld.
- Vancouver, near the bottom of the standings and averaging a league-low goals-per-game rate, retools with three forwards as GM Cara Gardner Morey projects two-way impact.
- The deal lands about 10 days before the monthlong Olympic break, with the PWHL trade deadline set for March 30.
