Schroeder s forwards Hilary Knight, Alex Carpenter, and Danielle Serdachny, plus defender Cayla Barnes, in Seattle. PWHL Vancouver has also signed the maximum number of players in the window.

"g Corinne is a huge step for our team," Seattle's general manager, Meghan Turner, said in a statement. "With four shutouts this season, more than anyone in the league, she's shown she can take over a game and deliver when it matters most. She brings poise, confidence, and the kind of elite goaltending every team needs to win, and we can't wait to see her between the pipes for us."

Schroeder has yet to play in the playoffs after New York finished last in both PWHL seasons. She was a finalist for Goaltender of the Year in 2024 after posting a .930 SV% and a 2.40 GAA in 15 games. The Manitoba native recorded a shutout in the first-ever PWHL game on Jan. 1, 2024, versus Toronto.

"I am incredibly honored and excited to be ing PWHL Seattle next season," Schroeder said. "The city has such a remarkable sports culture that I am eager to contribute to and build upon with our team."

The Sirens have lost two players in the expansion process and can protect one additional player before Monday's expansion draft.
