You can check out the full 30-game schedule here, but these are the must-see matchups that every Boston fan won’t want to miss.
Boston at Toronto Sceptres (Nov. 30)
The Sceptres were one of four teams to make the inaugural PWHL playoffs last season and took the Minnesota Frost to five games in the first round before being sent home for the summer. Toronto’s lineup features Natalie Spooner, last season’s points leader, top goal scorer and regular-season MVP and Goaltender of the Year recipient Kristen Campbell. Toronto is also returning the 2023-24 Coach of the Year winner Troy Ryan for his second season on the bench.
Minnesota Frost at Boston (Dec. 4)
This marks the Fleet’s home opener at Tsongas Center in Lowell, Mass., as they take on the defending Walter Cup champion Frost in a rematch of the inaugural championship clash. Minnesota is slated to feature Finals MVP Taylor Heise, 2023-24 Rookie of the Year Grace Zumwinkle and women’s hockey legend Kendall Coyne Schofield.
Boston at Montreal Victoire (Dec. 30)
The Fleet face the Victoire for the first time since Boston ousted Montreal in a stunning three-game, first-round sweep in the playoffs last season. Defender of the Year winner Erin Ambrose highlights Montreal’s roster, along with goaltender Ann-Renée Desbiens and forward Marie-Philip Poulin.

If last season was any indication of what to expect, Fleet goaltender Aerin Frankel could go head-to-head against Frost netminder Nicole Hensley in an epic battle before the postseason begins.
