The Riveters season opener will be free streamed on YouTube today at 1:30 PM EST. When the puck drops in Stamford, Connecticut the NWHL's historic inaugural season will officially begin. The league's first game was sold out over a week ago, but because the NWHL's streaming service, The Cross-Ice Pass, will be free to fans throughout the season we'll be able to catch this game and all other NWHL games on our computer monitors, phones, and tablets.
Keep an eye out for Nana Fujimoto and Lyudmila Belyakova this afternoon. The Riveters had the international stars join their training camp late, but Fujimoto was able to make an appearance in the club's second preseason game against the Minnesota Whitecaps.
