Women’s Hockey Wednesday: Meeri Räisänen, the star without a net

At the CWHL draft we got answers to most of our questions about player destinations. We found out where Alex Rigsby would end up (Calgary), if Toronto would be able to snag both Mellissa Channell and Julia Fedeski (yes, and they picked up Emma Greco too!), and who Worcester had as their pre-signings (Lauren Williams and Morgan Turner). At the end of the evening, though, one big question remained: what the heck is going on with Meeri Räisänen?

As mentioned by Kirsten Whelan in her draft wrap-up for The Victory Press, first Räisänen was selected by Markham in the eighth round.
