Report: there's potential for a women to make her NHL debut this season
BY SAM SEPTEMBER 3, 2023 (5:23 PM)
According to Ian Kennedy of The Hockey News, it's quite possible that a women finds herself making her NHL debut, rather than a team employee, or university student; take a look.
EBUG Alert: For many NHL teams this year, the best available EBUG may be a woman...and it could be historic
With limited spots available on PWHL rosters, there's bound to be an influx of high level women's goaltenders with little to no other options as to where they're going to play and if they want to stay in game shape for a potential call, being an EBUG isn't a bad idea
This is certainly an intriguing idea, given the talent level of women's hockey players, but the question still remains, will an NHL team do this? If it could make their EBUG situation more secure, they should.
It's certainly something to watch for this upcoming season.
