The Boston Fleet on Tuesday announced their 2024-25 PWHL regular-season schedule.
Boston opens the season on Nov. 30 to play the Toronto Sceptres at Coca-Cola Coliseum. The Fleet then host the Frost for their home opener at Tsongas Center at UMass Lowell on Dec. 4. It will mark the first meeting against Minnesota since Game 5 of the inaugural PWHL Finals in May.
“There’s a lot to look forward to as we head into season two,” general manager Danielle Marmer said in a press release. “Each team improved through the draft, raising the overall quality of play across the league, so we know every game will be a battle. I imagine our team is especially excited for our first meeting with Minnesota. And, of course, the Boston-Montréal rivalry lived up to the hype after last year’s intense playoff series. Last season, the playoff picture came down to the final game of the regular season, so there isn’t a game on this schedule we can afford to overlook. We have some unfinished business to attend to.”
The season schedule also includes two international breaks and a world championship break. The first international break begins Dec. 9 and the second one begins Feb. 3, 2025. The world championship break begins April 3, 2025.
“There’s a lot of excitement in our group around announcing our upcoming schedule,” head coach Courtney Kessel said in a press release. “As last season progressed, we felt the investment from our fans, so today is not only exciting for us, but also for them. We’re all eager to get back to the rink and pick up where we left off.”

Boston begins training camp Nov. 12 and will travel to Montréal for minicamps that include two preseason games.
“I’m itching to get the back to Boston and get the season going,” forward Jamie Lee Rattray said in a press release. “I feel like our group really found a way to come together and play the right way as the year went on last season. Looking forward to hitting the ground running with a phenomenal group of people.”
The Fleet will call Tsongas Center their home this season, but they also will play games in a different venue that will be announced in the coming weeks as well as broadcast and streaming information.
