Over the next two months, three significant women's hockey championships will be played. First, the Professional Women's Hockey Players' Association wraps the Dream Gap Tour with the Secret Cup beginning March 10.
Then, the Premier Hockey Federation hands out its Isobel Cup in the weeks after the regular season wraps on March 12. Finally, the world championships begin April 5 in Brampton, Ont.
And that doesn't even include the Rivalry Series, a seven-game Canada-U.S. showdown that concludes in late February in Quebec.
Busy times, to be sure. But a glaring gap remains: the sport's best players reside in the PWHPA, while the logistical structure of a league appears to be in the PHF.
