Amanda Boulier -

Amanda Boulier is an American professional hockey defenceman from Watertown, Connecticut, who began her PWHL career with the Ottawa Charge after being selected 77th overall (13th round) in the inaugural PWHL Draft. In Ottawa’s first PWHL season, Boulier recorded one goal and five assists for six points in 17 games, ranking third among the team’s defencemen in scoring. On March 18, 2024, she was traded to the Montréal Victoire in exchange for forward Tereza Vanišová. Boulier made her Montréal debut later that month and became part of the Victoire’s defensive group for the remainder of the inaugural season.

Boulier remained with Montréal through the following two seasons and was recognized for her contributions beyond the scoresheet. During the 2024–25 season, she received Montréal’s Intact Impact Award, a teammate-nominated honour recognizing a player who consistently demonstrates leadership, integrity, commitment and a strong commitment to their teammates. She completed the 2025–26 season with three assists in 30 regular-season games and appeared in all nine of Montréal’s playoff games as the Victoire captured their first Walter Cup, defeating the Ottawa Charge in four games in the championship series. Boulier’s PWHL career through the end of that championship season stood at 78 regular-season games, with two goals and 16 assists.

Prior to joining the PWHL, Boulier established herself as a successful professional defenceman in the NWHL and PHF. She played for the Minnesota Whitecaps and Boston Pride and was a two-time Isobel Cup champion, winning with Minnesota in 2019 and Boston in 2022. She also represented the United States at the 2011 IIHF U18 Women’s World Championship, where she recorded four points in five games and helped Team USA win the gold medal. After Montréal’s 2026 championship, Boulier signed a two-year PWHL contract with the Boston Fleet, returning to the organization where she had previously won an Isobel Cup.
