How well does the Athletic cover women’s hockey?
When Olympian Sami Jo Small was named the next GM of the CWHL’s Toronto Furies a little over a week ago, a lot of links popped up in my CWHL Google alerts, but only a few articles. Here at PPP, I wrote a short piece about her CWHL career, her final season, who she was replacing as GM and suggested her first move. The Ice Garden ran a short piece quoting the league’s press release and including confirmation from the league that Small was not intending on playing in the CWHL this season. Most links were to local outlets running a short Canadian Press blurb that talked more about Small’s on-ice career than anything else.
