A Masterlist of Underused French Names
So as a French person, I grew a little bit tired of seeing the same old French names over and over again. So under the cut is a list of 260 (185 first names and 105 surnames) underused French names, based on my experience, with the bolded ones being my favorites! And now don’t get me wrong, many of those names are not strictly French, and are in other languages too. But just know they are used in French too, so they can be used for your French character if needed. And there are obviously a lot of other names you can go for!

hello, i'm here to take you up on your offer of pwhl team/player recs based on preexisting favourites! I'm a canucks fan primarily, my favourite player is ethan bear (just waiting for him to re-sign), and i also follow the habs pretty closely. I was leaning toward supporting montréal's pwhl team bc of the city connection, but i'd love to hear any other suggestions you have! thank you!
Apologies for the delayed response!
Montréal has a lot of great player, and If you enjoy Ethan Bear's style of play as a puck moving defender with a lot of focus on creativity in of the offensive zone, I would watch Maude Poulin-Labelle closely
Poulin-Labelle is an interesting player because she, self admittedly, did not excel at hockey to start as a kid, and also was recruited as a forward by University of Vermont before transitioning to a full time defender. This is all according to writer Gabriella Fundaro for the website At Even Strength. The same article has one of my favorite quotes about her: “[My coaches] are always saying ‘Maude doing Maude things’ when I do something odd,” she said. “I’m not a hundred percent sure what they mean, but I think just that I’m doing odd stuff that most people wouldn’t do when I play.”
Maude holds the record for most points in a single season by a defender in Vermont, and even had a natural hat trick during her time there.
Highlights from that hat trick can be viewed here and give a good idea of her playing style, her talent for getting to the middle of the ice as a defender
As a person, she graduated with a mathematics computer science degree and a minor in applied design. She wear number 76 because her grandfather loves P.K. Subban. She has (her family has? not clear) several cats featured on her instagram.

I don’t think so! Poulin is a not super uncommon quebecois name in my experience, I would be surprised it they were related

2023-24 Signing News, Rumors, etc.
June 29 update: WELL NEVER FUCKING MIND, APPARENTLY
(I'm going to link this post in my pinned post and update it whenever there's something new to add!)
Players under contract:
Allie Munroe (D) - signed a two-year contract during the 2022 off-season (and renegotiated her salary prior to 2023-24)
Kennedy Marchment (F) - signed a two-year contract during the 2022 off-season (and renegotiated her salary prior to 2023-24)
Taylor Girard (F) - signed a two-year contract during the 2022 off-season (and renegotiated her salary prior to 2023-24)
Tori Howran (D) - signed a two-year contract during the 2022 off-season (renegotiated a new two-year contract prior to 2023-24)
Melissa Samoskevich (F) - signed a one-year contract during the 2022 off-season but was mentioned as being under a two-year contract in the press release for the Bellamy signing. Samo was subsequently confirmed by Melissa Burgess to have extended her previous contract into a two-year deal.
Kacey Bellamy (D) - signing announced on April 20, 2023
Kendall Cornine (F) - signing announced on May 18, 2023 (previously reported to be a possibility by Dan Rice in his April 26 Around the Rink in the PHF [AtR] podcast/Twitter Spaces)
Emma Söderberg (G) - signing announced on May 23 (two-year contract)
Maude Poulin-Labelle (D) - signing announced on May 31
Janka Hlinka (F) - re-signing announced June 12
Justine Reyes (F) - re-signing announced June 13
Sandra Abstreiter (G) - signing announced July 15
Players rumored to be signing with the Whale:
Michela Cava (F)
Emma Greco (D)
As reported by Dan Rice in the June 21 AtR episode: "I believe [the Whale is] going to sign, if they haven't already signed, Michela Cava, who was the MVP of the playoffs . . . as well as defender Emma Greco, who previously played in Connecticut and played the last couple of seasons with Toronto. I believe they're both gonna end up in Connecticut. . . . If they're not signed already, it's pretty close to and I think it's gonna end up happening."
Possibly Mariah Fujimagari (G)???!!!???!!! (I 💖 Fuji)
Per Dan R. on June 21: "I heard Fuji might be back, possibly as a third goalie with Connecticut, don't know."
Players from the 2022-23 roster who are rumored not to be returning:
Dan Rice reported in his April 17 Twitter Spaces conversation with Allie Morse that he has heard that Meeri Räisänen (G) might not return. He specifically said, "I think Connecticut would probably look for another goaltender, but I don't know that for a fact--just kind of reading what I've seen and what I've heard." In the same conversation, Dan mentioned that some players may be unable to balance next season's increased time commitment with their jobs/education and specifically cited Janine Weber (F) and Lenka Serdar (F) as players who might not come back due to their other commitments (nothing definite, though). [WhalePropaganda note: Lenka has been participating in Whale-related activities this spring, so maybe she'll be sticking around?]
[A further WhalePropaganda note: based on the fact that Söderberg and Abstreiter have been signed, Meeri's definitely gone and we just don't know where she's going. My guess is that she'll be staying in Europe—she seemed really upset that she couldn't bring her dog with her when she came to the US :( ]
Abbie Ives (G) - Here's what Dan R. said in the May 16 AtR: "I still think there's a chance, from everything that I've heard . . . that if those two goaltenders [Söderberg and Abstreiter] sign in Connecticut, like, I wouldn't be surprised if Abbie's also there as well, like, again, teams carry three goaltenders. It's not easy, it's probably not ideal, but you want to have depth, and they went through last year where they had two goaltenders that split the time, so you never know, injuries can happen. But I've also heard that Abbie Ives might be a possibility in Buffalo— that's another team that I've heard that she's been speaking to."
On June 21, however, he said that Fuji is a possibility for the Whale's third goalie, which may eliminate that as a possibility for Abbie.
Players from the 2022-23 roster who are definitely not returning:
Shannon Turner (D) - retired :(
Emma Keenan (D) - signed with Montreal Force (officially announced May 12, previously reported by Ian Kennedy and Dan Rice)
Kateřina Mrázová (F) - (probable departure previously reported by Dan Rice) signing with the Rivs announced June 2
Caitrin Lonergan (F) - (prev. reported by multiple sources) signing with Boston announced June 2
