PWHL to Host All-Star Event for First Time in Toronto
Teams will play round-robin, semifinal and final games in a 10-player 3-on-3 format, with starters chosen by fan, player and media voting.
- On Thursday, Sept. 24, the Professional Women's Hockey League announced its first independent All-Star event will take place March 7, 2027, at Toronto's Scotiabank Arena, featuring a four-team, 3-on-3 tournament.
- Four squads—PWHL Canada, PWHL USA, PWHL International, and PWHL Rookies—will compete in a round-robin format using 10-player rosters, with the second- and third-ranked teams advancing to a semifinal.
- PWHL executive vice-president of hockey operations Jayna Hefford said the format "creates an intense, fast-paced style of play," adding that returning to Toronto is "fitting" as the site where the league first dropped the puck.
- Scripps Sports will air the tournament on ION in the United States, while TSN and Radio-Canada provide coverage in Canada, demonstrating the league's rapid growth since its 2024 inception.
- Voting from fans, players, and media will determine All-Star starters, with league hockey operations selecting reserve players; the league will announce full roster construction, ticketing, and gameplay rules closer to the March 7 event.
