New Vibes Based Hockey article! In this one, I discuss the closing of the PHF from a queer perspective. I go into the effect this has had on fans, myself, and even how it affects queer (especially trans) athletes.

New Vibes Based Hockey article! Today, the off-season begins as I come back from my writing vacation with a news roundup. Today's article contains news stories such as a former NHL prospect claiming he was forced to fight, Patrice Bergeron retires, women's hockey updates and more!

Women's sports are queer in their core conception. They are transgressive by existing. To fail to acknowledge that is a failure to interact with reality.
So as you can imagine, I am concerned with these reports about Stan Kasten's opinion on the PHF branding and especially that of the Boston Pride being "too controversial."

One of the best articles I've seen on the PWHPA/PHF situation in women's hockey right now, written by Erica Ayala. No paywall. She interviewed PHF team ownership, their commissioner, a long time PHF player, and a PWHPA board member. Check it out.

If you're wondering what is happening in Women's Pro Hockey, the PHF has been acquired by the LA Dodgers' controlling owner, Mark Walter. The league will shutter and consolidate with PWHPA to create a unified women's hockey league that is expected to launch in January 2024.
The primary concern is what this does to PHF contracts. This will void all current contracts and provide all players with a minimum salary of $35,000.

#Florida is one of the hottest markets for amateur game, and the state hopes to boost the girls’ side.

Happy to announce I'm contributing to the newly-independent The Ice Garden, which has been a mainstay of women's hockey coverage and had an giant role in getting me into the sport, so I'm thrilled to see it thrive + be a part of it. I'll be doing a lot of my data viz + other stats stuff (+ writing, which, I want to practice) there, and would love if you checked it out and subscribed if so inclined (for free or a paid tier).
