PWHL Star of the Week – Frankel Backstops Fleet to Weekly Honor

Today the Professional Women’s Hockey League announced their Player of the Week for the week of January 12th through 18th.

Aerin Frankel (G – BOS)

  • Boston’s Aerin Frankel posted two wins with a 0.96 goals-against-average and a .966 save percentage to be named PWHL Player of the Week presented by SharkNinja. The 26-year-old from Chappaqua, NY, made 21 saves in the Fleet’s 2-1 win over the Sceptres on Wednesday, then stopped a season-high 35 shots, plus all five shootout attempts, in a 2-1 triumph over the Torrent on Sunday. Frankel has allowed just one goal against in four straight games and has surrendered one or fewer goals in nine of her 12 starts this season, more than doubling the four such games she had in 2024-25. The soon-to-be first-time U.S. Olympian leads the league with eight wins, is tied for the lead with three shutouts, holds a league-low 1.23 GAA and is tied with a league-high .950 SV% among goaltenders with multiple games this season.
