The PWHL, eying potential future expansion, began a nine-city tour through the U.S. and Canada on Sunday afternoon.

Yanni Gourde was the special guest for the PWHL’s Montreal Victoire on Sunday, but it was his young daughter, Emma, who stole the show. As the Victoire were getting set to face the Boston Fleet at Climate Pledge Arena during the PWHL’s “Takeover Tour,” Gourde and Emma joined the team in the locker room to announce the starting lineup.

The Takeover Tour begins next week with stops in Seattle, Vancouver, and Denver. Several players will be making a return home as professional players for the first time ever.

The Seattle Kraken assistant coach spoke to the Montreal Victoire after their practice at the Kraken Community Iceplex in Seattle.
