The PWHL roster freeze deadline is now just over two weeks away. Teams have started making calls on the trade market, and more free agents from Europe are becoming available each week. Here's a look at one need and one want for each PWHL team.

I wish we could just sign a player from Finland before the window closes rather than wait for the draft:

Seattle Torrent

Things haven't played out for Seattle as they thought. This team has more needs than wants. Leading that conversation with Hilary Knight and Hannah Bilka out is the need for more scoring. They might be able to find a forward in exchange for one of their blueliners, but this is a team that looks like they also need to figure out their chemistry and find players who know how to play as part of a team before they play as individuals. From a playoff contender, that's not likely the type of player that will be made available, but if the Torrent dangle the right defender, anything is possible. If there's a want in Seattle's lineup, it's for a defender with offensive upside as they've struggled to generate offense from the blueline. That however, isn't the type of player a "seller" gets at the deadline in this league.
