(Dave Holland/Canadian Sport Inst - image credit)As one of only six franchises playing in the inaugural season of the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL), Ottawa's team has already scored three of Canada's top players. The honour of being the first player signed to the league is "still sinking in, but definitely a dream come true," Clark told CBC Radio's All In A Day. The 27-year-old from Saskatoon said she never gave up on the dream of playing professional hockey — and joining the PWHL means she's been able to make it happen. (Nathan Denette/The Canadian Press)The new league was created with participation from members of the Professional Women's Hockey Players Association — a group for which Jenner served as a founding board member. Jenner said that with the launch of the PWHL, she's never been more optimistic about women's sports.
