Professional women’s hockey is set to make its return to Canada with the National Women’s Hockey League officially announcing it is expanding into Toronto.
The NWHL is canceling plans to add a pair of Canadian teams for the 2019-20 season and making clear it is open to doing what's best for women's hockey.
The world's top female players have taken the next step toward a professional league by forming a union. The Professional Women's Hockey Association said the paperwork was filed Friday.
