The Professional Women's Hockey League will open its third regular season on Nov. 21.

The 2025-26 campaign will feature a total of 120 games, with all eight teams playing a 30-game slate.

Expansion teams PWHL Seattle and host PWHL Vancouver will meet in one of two games on opening night.

The two-time defending champion Minnesota Frost will host the Toronto Sceptres in the other.

'Season Three will be truly special with the highly anticipated debut of our first expansion teams in Seattle and Vancouver and the growth of the PWHL community to the West Coast,' said Jayna Hefford, PWHL executive vice president of hockey operations. 'We can't wait for puck drop to see the impact our new and returning players will make, and to deliver a competitive season with even more games for fans to enjoy.'

Opening weekend continues with the Ottawa Charge hosting the New York Sirens on Nov. 22 and the Boston Fleet hosting the Montreal Victoire on Nov. 23.

The league will pause from Jan. 29 to Feb. 25 for the 2026 Winter Games in Italy. The PWHL will also break from Dec. 8-15 for national team training and competition.

The regular season ends on April 25 with all eight teams in action.
