Last week, it was announced that Pegula Sports and Entertainment (PSE) was ending its relationship with the NWHL and handing ownership of the Buffalo Beauts back to the league. Since then, there’s been plenty of speculation about the move, PSE’s investment in women’s hockey, and how this will shape the professional women’s game moving forward.
Some have speculated that the move was a direct response to the #ForTheGame movement and the decision by hundreds of players to sit out the upcoming season. However, The Victory Press reported that PSE’s decision had been considered prior to the movement and “may have been inevitable.”
