Meet the Vancouver Goldeneyes.
The PWHL Vancouver has announced its team name at a press conference Thursday morning (Nov. 6) in downtown Vancouver.
The announcement includes PWHL Vancouver general manager Cara Gardner and head coach Brian Idalski alongside 11 players.
PWHL Seattle has also just announced its team name: the Seattle Torrent.
The new team names and logos will not be incorporated into on-ice uniforms until the 2026-2027 season.
The PWHL Vancouver unveiled its inaugural season jerseys on Oct. 21. The jerseys will feature “Vancouver” diagonally across the front and the team colours of Pacific blue and cream with an “earthy bronze accent.”
The design pays “homage to the designs worn by the PWHL’s inaugural six teams in the league’s first season,” noted a Oct. 21 PWHL release.
The PWHL Vancouver is set to drop the puck Nov. 21 against PWHL Seattle for its inaugural season, playing out of the Pacific Coliseum and utilizing the PNE Agrodome as its practice facility.
The PWHL will enter its third season this fall with its original six teams: Toronto Sceptres, Montreal Victoire, Ottawa Charge, Minnesota Frost, Boston Fleet, and New York Sirens, along with the two new teams, Vancouver Goldeneyes and Seattle Torrent.
More to come…
