The Boston Fleet are a professional ice hockey team based in the Greater Boston area that competes in the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL). They are one of the six charter franchises of the league. The team plays its home games at Tsongas Center.
On August 29, 2023, it was announced that one of the PWHL's first six franchises would be located in Boston. This ensured the continuation of professional women's hockey in the area after the folding of the Boston Pride and the Premier Hockey Federation earlier that summer; the Pride had been that league's most successful franchise, winning three Isobel Cup championships. Danielle Marmer, a former scout and player development assistant for the National Hockey League's Boston Bruins, was named PWHL Boston's inaugural general manager. On September 15, Boston University women's team associate head coach Courtney Birchard-Kessel was announced as the team's first head coach.
The team's first three player signings were United States national team players Hilary Knight, Aerin Frankel, and Megan Keller, all signed to three-year deals. Boston's first selection in the 2023 PWHL Draft, held on September 18, was Swiss forward Alina Müller, taken third overall.
In November, it was revealed that the team's colors would be green, gray, and white. It was also revealed that the team would host home games at the Tsongas Center in Lowell.
Ahead of the start of the inaugural 2024 season, former Boston Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron introduced Knight as Boston's captain; Keller and Jamie Lee Rattray were introduced as alternate captains. The team hosted its inaugural game against Minnesota Frost on January 3, 2024. The team's first ever goal was scored by Theresa Schafzahl, 7:59 into the 2nd period. Minnesota ultimately won the game by a score of 3–2. Boston's first victory came in a 3–2 overtime decision against Montreal Victoire on January 13. Boston went on to finish third in the league standings, clinching a playoff spot in their final regular season game.
In the first round of the playoffs, Boston faced Montreal. Boston went on to defeat Montreal in three straight games, with all three victories coming in overtime. Boston advanced to the championship series, where they faced Minnesota. Goaltender Aerin Frankel led the playoffs in saves. However, Boston lost a close five-game series, with Minnesota clinching the Walter Cup championship in Lowell on May 29.
