Women’s hockey news 6/1-6/16

News from around the women’s hockey world, only confirmed news and not rumors. It’s hard to cover every signing and extension so I try to filter to just the most notable but may miss something, feel free to add!

This is a long one as a heads up

Finnish forward Ida Kuoppala signs with Skellefteå AIK. She spent the past few season with UMaine and was one of their top scorers

University of Minnesota Duluth and Bemidji state forward Reece Hunt signs with Luleå

SWHL/Postfinance Women League (Switzerland)

HC Ambrì-Piotta Girls sign two big names from Naisten Liiga. The first is Michaela Pejzlová, a star from Czechia who led Naisten Liiga in points, was a first team all star, and won her second championship. HIFK teammate Julia Liikala is the other player from Naisten Liiga joining, she was a second team all star for the league and played on Finland’s national team that won a gold medal

HC Ambrì-Piotta Girls also gets three players who played in the SWHL last year: the first is young Swiss goaltender Sofia Bernardasci, who’s played solid backup minutes the past two years on other teams. 23 year old Italian center Greta Niccolai, who represents her national team and also captained ladies team Lugano last year, joins the team as well. Lastly, young defender Valérie Christmann joins from HC Davos Ladies

Naisten Liiga (Finland)

Naisten Liiga schedule announced and can be viewed here. The season will star in September with a mini showcase in Turku where all teams will play their first few games

Forward Pauliina Salonen returns to HIFK. The 20 year old was one of their top producers last season and spent some time on the national team during their five nationals tournament

Kiekko-Espoo extend Minttu Tuominen, Tiia Pajarinen, Aliisa Toivonen, Siru Lehtopelto, Tea Villilä, Nea Katajamäki, Lisette Täks, and Nea Koskipalo. Tuominen, a star defender who was drafted by the PWHL but ended up playing in China and then Finland instead last year. Also notable is Pajarinen had 16 solid starts for Kiekko-Espoo last year, and got some looks on the national team. Tea Villilä has also been a mainstay producer on Kiekko-Espoo for the past several years. Täks finished with the most goals in Naisten Liiga. All this to say, Kiekko-Espoo has brought back significant core pieces
