Veteran forward Kelly Babstock has signed with the new Toronto franchise of the National Women’s Hockey League.

TORONTO — Veteran forward Kelly Babstock signed with the new Toronto franchise of the National Women’s Hockey League on Saturday.

The Toronto team increases the U.S.-based NWHL’s number of franchises to six and comes a year after the Canadian Women’s Hockey League folded after 12 seasons because of financial instability. The 27-year-old Babstock played in the first four seasons of the NWHL — the first three as a member of the Connecticut Whale and the 2018-19 season with the Buffalo Beauts."There are no words to describe my joy over returning to the NWHL for a fifth pro season," said Babstock, who made the Isobel Cup final with Buffalo in 2018-19. "I missed having the hunger to win a championship — the Izzy Cup, and I embrace this opportunity Toronto has given me.

Babstock, Chuli, Greco, Darkangelo and Woods were all members of the Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association.
