Today the Professional Women’s Hockey League announced their Player of the Week for the week of March 23rd through 29th.
Aerin Frankel (G – BOS)
- Boston’s Aerin Frankel continues to re-write the record book, becoming the first goaltender in PWHL history to post three straight shutout victories and has been named PWHL Player of the Week presented by SharkNinja. Last week, the Olympic gold medalist turned aside all 53 shots faced in a pair of shutout victories, including 35 saves on Tuesday at the Tsongas Center in a 2-0 win over Vancouver, the most saves in any of the league’s 22 shutouts this season. She made history with her 18-save effort on Friday in a 4-0 victory over Toronto to extend her record shutout streak to 191:01. The seven shutouts this season by the 26-year-old from Chappaqua, NY, are more than any other PWHL goaltender has recorded in their career and brings her up to nine all-time. Her 16 wins in 21 games has tied the PWHL single-season record (Kristen Campbell, 2024) and her 1.17 goals-against average and .954 save percentage are both top marks among PWHL netminders.
