Toronto Six re-sign playoff hero Tereza Vanisova for upcoming PHF season

The Toronto Six have signed playoff hero Tereza Vanisova for the upcoming season from the Premier Hockey Federation.

The 27-year-old forward from Strakonice, Czech Republic, scored in overtime as the Six defeated the Minnesota Whitecaps 4-3 on March 26 to clinch their first Isobel Cup title.

It capped off a breakaway season for Vanisova, who had a career-high 14 points (five goals, nine assists) in 24 games with Toronto.

Vanisova won her third consecutive PHF title in 2022-23 after winning the Isobel Cup in 2021 and 2022 as a member of the Boston Pride.

Tereza Vanišová’s winning goal in overtime crowned Toronto Six as the first-ever Canadian PHF hockey team to win the Isobel Cup.

She has five goals and 11 assists in 27 career PHF games.

“Tereza Vanisova was the star of last year at the end and scored the winning goal in the Isobel Cup final. In my opinion, I still don’t think anyone is faster than Vanisova in this competition,” said Toronto general manager Angela . James said in a statement.

The Six now have 10 players under contract for the upcoming season.
