The Fleet's Finest
Led by some of Team USA’s brightest stars, the Boston Fleet clinched their playoff berth on March 29 and now have their sights set on their first-ever Walter Cup.
Aerin Frankel
LEARN MOREFrankel has reached a new level in this, her third season, notching seven shutouts for the Fleet thus far and serving as the top netminder for the USA at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026, where she compiled a 5-0 record while winning gold.
Megan Keller
Learn MoreThis gifted defender scored the biggest goal at the 2026 Winter Olympics, winning the U.S. the gold medal in a 2-1 thriller over rival Canada, and she's been just as impactful with the Fleet, notching a career-high 18 points already this season.
Jessie Eldridge
Learn MoreAcquired from the Torrent in a trade shortly before the late-March deadline, this veteran forward made an instant impact on the Fleet's attack and ended the regular season on a nine-points-in-six-games streak.
Alina Müller
Learn MoreA four-time Olympian with Switzerland at the age of just 28, Müller is a key cog in the Fleet attack, having already tallied three goals and a PWHL single-season-record 17 assists so far this season while serving as Boston's alternate captain.
