The Toronto Sceptres came to terms with goaltender Elaine Chuli and forward Claire Dalton on one-year contracts on Tuesday.
Both players are signed through the 2025-26 PWHL season after spending last season with the Montreal Victoire.
Chuli, 31, posted a 2.42 goals-against average and .910 save percentage in 11 games (10 starts) in 2024-25.
“Elaine brings consistency to our team. A proven goalie in the league, she brings a lot of traits we value both on and off the ice. We are also excited to have signed Claire Dalton, who brings size, a great shot and a high ceiling,” Sceptres general manager Gina Kingsbury said. “We believe these two athletes will excel in our market, and we are excited to have them in Sceptres jerseys.”
Chuli is no stranger to playing in Toronto, as the Ontario native spent three seasons with the Six in the Premier Hockey Federation and the Furies in the final season of the Canadian Women’s Hockey League in 2018-19.
“I couldn’t be more excited to be coming home to Toronto and joining the Sceptres for next season,” Chuli said. “It means a lot to me to be back close to home and have the chance to play in front of such a passionate fan base. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to represent this city and this organization, and I’m ready to compete to bring a championship back to Toronto.”
Dalton, a 25-year-old who hails from Toronto, totaled 18 points (eight goals, 10 assists) in 50 games over the last two seasons.
“I am really excited for the opportunity to be a Toronto Sceptre! I’m looking forward to coming home and playing in front of friends and family,” Dalton said. “I’ve admired the competitiveness and style of play Toronto has demonstrated these past two seasons and hope to contribute positively to an already great group.”
