Vancouver Goldeneyes

• Expiring contract, rights held: Michelle Karvinen, Madison Samoskevich

Note: Kristen Campbell signed a three-year contract in 2023, so her contract should be expiring. According to the league’s website, she is signed through the 2026-27 season.

Izzy Daniel signed a two-year contract in 2024. Her contract should be expiring, but like Campbell, the league’s website indicates she is signed through the 2026-27 season.

Anna Shokhina is listed as on an expiring contract, but she should be a restricted free agent (rights held).

UPDATE: The Ice Garden has received confirmation from the Goldeneyes regarding their statuses. Kristen Campbell apparently signed an unannounced extension upon being traded! The league erroneously listed Daniel as signed. Finally, Shokhina is an unrestricted free agent, as rights for draft picks are only retained by their original team.

Clarifications from the team:
-Campbell extended when she was traded to Vancouver
-Daniel is a free agent
– rights for draft picks are only retained by their original team, Shokina leaving Ottawa removed her RFA status and is now a UFA#PWHL https://t.co/jeGuQgfiC8
