Like so many of her teammates, the inaugural season of the Professional Women’s Hockey League has held many firsts for Ottawa goaltender Emerance Maschmeyer.
She was one of the first three players to be signed to Ottawa’s roster. She was in goal for Ottawa’s first win. She was the first to have a gender reveal during practice.
Maschmeyer and her wife, former Team Canada goaltender Geneviève Lacasse, are expecting their first child at the end of August.
