Women’s Check In: Homestretch for the playoffs, jobs on the line.

We talked a lot about Hilary Knight at the midseason check in, and she has definitely shown signs of life in PWHL play. She is however playing true to herself in the World Championships which shows she has it left in the tank so what is the issue in Boston? The quick answers might be more densely talented teammates she is used to playing with, and so far she has not played against goaltenders that are up to the same levels as the PWHL talent in net. In the PWHL all six teams boast a goalie that has either logged major minutes fro the US or Canada or has had major questions about why they aren't getting those minutes since they deserve it, so far the US has played some very good goalies but the coming game against Canada and then the knock out rematch will be telling.
