Goaltender Corinne Schroeder of Elm Creek, has signed a two-year contract with PWHL Seattle ahead of the team’s inaugural season.
The signing was announced by the PWHL league in a June 6 press release. Schroeder, 25, becomes the fifth player to join the Seattle roster as the PWHL expands to include teams in Seattle and Vancouver for the 2025–26 season.
“Signing Corinne is a huge step for our team,” said Seattle general manager Meghan Turner in the release. “With four shutouts this season, more than anyone in the league, she’s shown she can take over a game and deliver when it matters most.”
Schroeder spent the last two seasons with the New York Sirens. She appeared in 20 games in 2024–25, finishing with a 10–8 record, a .930 save percentage, and a league-best four shutouts. She was named a finalist for the PWHL Goaltender of the Year award and now holds the league record for career shutouts with five.
Originally selected 33rd overall by New York in the 2023 PWHL Draft, Schroeder made history on Jan. 1, 2024, by posting the first shutout in league history during the PWHL’s inaugural game against Toronto.
Prior to joining the PWHL, Schroeder played one season in the PHF with the Boston Pride, where she was named both Goaltender and Rookie of the Year in 2022–23. She led the PHF that season with a 1.67 goals-against average and .955 save percentage, finishing second on the league’s all-time shutout list with seven.
She played four NCAA seasons with Boston University and one with Quinnipiac University, where she was a finalist for NCAA Women’s Goaltender of the Year in 2021–22. Schroeder also earned multiple Hockey East All-Star honours during her time in Boston and won a silver medal with Canada at the 2017 IIHF U18 Women’s World Championship.
“I am incredibly honoured and excited to be joining PWHL Seattle next season,” Schroeder said in the league’s announcement. “I am truly grateful to the New York Sirens for the past two seasons and would like to thank them for believing in me and supporting me every step of the way.”
