Summary
The New York Sirens are reeling after a brutal expansion draft that’s stripped them of key offensive stars and their starting goalie, leaving them with a depleted roster and a tough rebuild ahead. While they secured big names like Sarah Fillier early, later phases saw them lose forwards Anne Cherkowski, Kristin O’Neill, and Maddi Wheeler — plus goalie Kayle Osborne — to rival teams. Though they protected vital defenders like Jaime Bourbonnais and captain Micah Zandee-Hart, the loss of Allyson Simpson further weakens their blue line. With the final phase wrapping up after the 2026 Entry Draft, the Sirens’ fate hinges on a strong draft and aggressive free agency moves if they hope to bounce back next season.
