OMETIMES LIFE HAS A WAY OF MOVING AS FAST AS HAYLEY SCAMURRA ON ICE. One minute she's celebrating a Walter Cup championship with her Montreal Victoire teammates and the next she's packing her bags and heading to Las Vegas, where she will play for her fourth PWHL team in the past four seasons. "It all happened so fast. It was only like a week and a half after our season ended and we were just celebrating all together and then all of a sud- den, it's like I'm on a new team," said the Williamsville, N.Y., native who was selected during the league's expansion draft. "It was a lot to grapple with at first. I'm obviously sad to be leaving Montreal. I loved it there, but I'm really excited to be in a new market to play for Vegas and to get really involved with the community there." With the success of the NHL's Vegas Golden Knights, Las Vegas has transformed into a hockey hotbed. The addition of a PWHL franchise, the 12th in the league since its historic inception in 2024, will only help grow the game at an even faster pace.
