Danielle Serdachny Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Danielle Serdachny is making headlines this week as she enters a new chapter in her pro hockey journey—just signed by PWHL Seattle, Serdachny has agreed to a two-year contract, making her one of the key faces as the expansion franchise begins its new era. PWHL Seattle formally announced the deal, and training camp kicked off this week at the Kraken Community Iceplex, with Serdachny calling the experience both nerve-wracking and exciting. She’s embracing the challenge of building chemistry in a brand-new city and organization, and according to The Hockey News, she described opening camp with the Torrent as “waking up today, I was pretty nervous, it really hit me what was going on—coming into a new city, a new environment.” But she remains upbeat and focused, expressing how much fun she’s having with her new teammates and hinting at her excitement for the season ahead. After her rookie season with the Ottawa Charge—a year marked more by hard work and grit than pure offensive numbers—her transition to the pro level is under scrutiny. The Ice Garden reports that in 30 games last season, she contributed 2 goals and 6 assists and became a force along the boards, helping Ottawa reach the Walter Cup Finals. Though the points didn’t flow quite as freely as they did during her record-breaking years at Colgate or her big moments with Team Canada, her overall impact was still felt every shift. Internationally, Serdachny continues to shine; during the 2025 IIHF Women’s World Championship, she put up two goals and two assists and logged key minutes for Team Canada, reinforcing her knack for showing up when it counts. NBC Olympics and CBC’s viral video of her 2024 golden goal versus the U.S. remains one of her career-defining moments, and with the 2026 Olympic Games looming, she’s pushing hard to secure a senior Olympic roster spot. Hockey Canada’s recent previews highlight Serdachny as a prime candidate for the team heading to Italy, noting her excellent track record against Team USA. On the media front, Serdachny appeared on NHL Now this week to discuss her transition to the pros, her victory with Canada in 2024, and her hopes for Seattle and the national squad. NHL Now’s interview emphasized both her drive and self-awareness—qualities that have become her trademark. Social media buzzes with photos and video from the training camp, with fans sharing shots of Serdachny in Seattle colors, mixing enthusiasm with high expectations. As for business moves, there’s been no word of any new sponsorships or off-ice deals emerging in the past 72 hours. The focus remains squarely on hockey and team-building in Seattle, where Serdachny is expected to slot in as one of the expansion team’s centerpiece players for the 2025-26 season, setting up several highly anticipated clash-ups against her old club Ottawa, as reported by the PWHL’s official site.
