The Sirens used the first round of the PWHL draft on Tuesday night to restock their offensive cupboard, taking Colgate star Kristyna Kaltounkova with the No. 1 pick and trading up to take Wisconsin forward Casey O’Brien with the No. 3 selection.
The Sirens lost star forwards Alex Carpenter and Jessie Eldridge after leaving the two unprotected in the exclusive signing window and the expansion draft, but add two young players who give them a scoring boost, including one who comes with three national championships to her name.
Kaltounkova, a Czechia native, finished in the top 10 in goal scoring in the nation this past season with Colgate and scored a record 111 goals during her time with the program.
