The attached statement reads as follows:

“We are fortunate to be ambassadors of the game we revere so deeply and yet, more than ever, we understand the responsibility that comes with that ambassadorship: To leave this game in better shape than when we entered it. That is why we come together, over 200 players strong, to say it’s time to create a sustainable league for professional Women’s Hockey.
