Montreal trades Anna Kjellbin to Toronto for Kaitlin Willoughby

theathletic.com

The Toronto Sceptres have traded forward Kaitlin Willoughby to the Montreal Victoire for defender Anna Kjellbin. This move marks the only trade on a quiet PWHL deadline day, involving players with limited roles on their teams. Kjellbin, a veteran defender, has struggled for playing time in Montreal, while Willoughby has primarily been a fourth-line player in Toronto. The trade aims to address depth needs for both teams. With this trade, Toronto can balance its roster as it prepares for the return of star forward Sarah Nurse from injury. The league's roster freeze will begin on Friday, limiting further player movements.
