Up front, Montreal Victoire forward Lina Ljungblom and Toronto Sceptres draft pick Sara Hjalmarsson will be joined by veterans Hanna Thuvik, Hanna Olsson, Elin Svensson, and Linnea Johansson. NCAA players Josefin Bouveng, Thea Johansson, and Nicole Hall will compete for roster spots, as will young players from the SDHL including Mira Hallin, Ebba Hedqvist, Edit Danielsosn, and Wilma Sundin.
