Krizova Joins Sirens, Boosts Playoff Hopes

0:00It's April 1st. You're listening to NHL News today, AI-powered coverage of your team. I'm Cory with the story. The PWHL trade deadline hit on March 30th for the 2025-26 season, and it stayed pretty quiet overall. The last big move saw the New York sirens' ship defender, Jincey Roessay, to the Minnesota Frost in exchange for forward Danisa Krizova, shaking up both. Squads right at the buzzer. Krizova got picked 48th overall by Minnesota back in the 2023 draft. She suited up for every single game in her PWHL career so far, piling up points across three seasons, six, her rookie year, a career high-nine last, time with four goals and five assists. This year, after a quick expansion draft flip to Vancouver, and a trade right back to the Frost, she's got five points in 23 games. The sirens were hurting up front, missing Taylor Gerard for the long haul, and putting Christina Kaltankova on long-term injured reserve.

1:02Krizova steps in as a reliable depth score, bringing some much-needed offense to a lineup that's been ice-cold lately, especially with Clare to George, just debuting. What really boosts New York is her playoff chops. She helped the Frost snag the Walter Cup twice. The sirens are still in the hunt for their first-ever postseason birth, which would mean all original six teams have punched a ticket at least once. She makes her sirens debut Wednesday, April 1, hosting her old squad, The Frost, at the Prudential Center, expect fireworks when these trade partners. Clash, as New York pushes hard for that playoff magic.
