    #61 - Daryl Watts of the PHF's Toronto Six

    Daryl Watts recently signed a contract with the Toronto Six of the Premier Hockey Federation that will make her the highest paid player in the history of women’s professional hockey ($150,000/year!). She is the 2nd leading scorer in women’s NCAA history, tallying 136 goals, 161 assists for a total of 297 points over 5 seasons. In 2019, as a freshman at Boston College, she won the Patty Kazmaier award as the best player in the country, and in 2021, she scored the NCAA championship-winning overtime goal for the Wisconsin Badgers.  In this wide-ranging and lively conversation, Daryl and Bob discuss: Coming out of "retirement" to sign with the Toronto Six; stylistic differences between PHF and the NCAA hockey; Wrist Shots; unifying women's hockey; an illustrious college career; adding body checking to women's hockey; and playing women's junior hockey at age 14.  Along the way, we look back at moments from past episodes that put Daryl's accomplishments in historical context, including colorful and poignant stories from these distinguished figures in women's hockey: Ep25, Rebecca Morse (Moose), PHF all-star, 6-year veteran (2016-22)Ep31, Digit Murphy, President of the Metropolitan RivetersEp17, Cara Morey, Head Women's Hockey Coach at Princeton UniversityEp32, Kaleigh Fratkin (Fratty), Boston Pride, 2x PHF Defender of the Year+++ The Rink Stories podcast is produced by Matt Hopf Artwork by Ken Klein.
