Summary
Vancouver Goldeneyes shock the PWHL by drafting Olympic superstar Caroline Harvey first overall—marking her historic return to North America and signaling a bold push for a championship. The two-time Olympian, who led the 2026 Winter Games in scoring and won IIHF Female Player of the Year, brings elite offensive firepower to Vancouver’s blue line, already home to Sophie Jaques. This isn’t the first time an American has gone No. 1—Taylor Heise was picked first last year—but Harvey’s pedigree elevates the Goldeneyes’ ambitions. The draft, held in Detroit’s iconic Fox Theater, also saw Seattle and San Jose land top picks after trades, including Hilary Knight’s move to Detroit. With a new coach yet to be named, Harvey’s selection is a defining moment in shaping Vancouver’s future as a title contender. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
