Hilary Knight has company in Seattle. The new PWHL team has added two 2024 first-round draft picks — Ottawa forward Danielle Serdachny and Montreal defenseman Cayla Barnes.

Seattle has begun building around Hilary Knight. Canadian forward Danielle Serdachny signed with the PWHL expansion franchise, according to multiple reports on Wednesday.

On the first day of an exclusive free-agent signing window for the PWHL’s two newest franchises in Seattle and Vancouver, the Ottawa Charge lost their first two pieces of the expansion process.
