Feature story on Toronto's free agent forward Daryl Watts from The Hockey News ...
One-Of-A-Kind Daryl Watts Follows Her Own Path
Daryl Watts is a one-of-a-kind hockey player for not only her skills, but her pathway to get to where she is today in the PWHL.

Daryl Watts is a one-of-a-kind hockey player for more than just her skills. Her history of making unconventional decisions sets her apart. She showed that in her decision to retire early, to sign a groundbreaking contract, and to leave her PWHL team as a free agent

Daryl Watts, the newest member of PWHL Toronto, is not just a good hockey player or a talented scoring forward. She is an individual playing a team sport. That is not to say she is selfish or plays for herself or isn’t a great teammate; instead, it is simply a function of her uniqueness and independence of thought, style, and outlook on the game. ...

PWHL camp rosters continue to round out. Here's a look at many of the players who will be heading to training camps this Fall with each of the PWHL's six teams.

PWHL camp rosters continue to come together as the offseason hits a point when many players are exiting vacations and a time to reset their bodies, and are entering the heavy training it will take to earn or keep roster spots this season.

Most teams have completed the bulk of their rosters with only a handful of spots available in training camp. Most of those positions have unsigned draft picks pencilled in, but there will be outside free agents competing.

Who were you thinking

Fillier was my top pick

You win the prize, then. I have no hometown biases with this league, but I was grimacing over the thought that TIG and their colleagues who contributed to The List would be inclined to support the Dream Gapper posse & rank KCS as #1 for her "leadership" of the FIRST Walter Cup winners. But then I remembered that Kendall was a skosh older than 25. :wally:

Fillier rightfully earned the top spot based on talent & hockey accomplishments (as it should be) at her young age of 24.

I actually had the same thought about Spooner a bit ago :laugh:
"Well, they'll likely pick Spooner after the year she just had! Oh, wait she's 33 now..."
