The Toronto Sceptres have agreed to terms with forward Clair DeGeorge for the 2025-26 season, the PWHL team announced Monday.

The 26-year-old free agent from Alaska played for the Montreal Victoire in 2024-25 and recorded two assists in 26 regular-season games.

With Minnesota in the inaugural PWHL season in 2023-24, she had one assist in 23 games in the regular season and appeared in all 10 playoff games for the Walter Cup champions.

"We are excited to welcome Clair to our organization," Sceptres general manager Gina Kingsbury said. "Clair is a 200-foot center that is defensively responsible with some offensive upside. She will bring PWHL experience to our lineup including being a Walter Cup champion."

At Ohio State, DeGeorge scored the winning goal in double-overtime that sent Ohio State to the 2022 Frozen Four. She added a goal and an assist in the final to secure the Buckeyes' first national championship.

"In becoming a Sceptre, I am excited for the opportunity to develop as a player and experience the electrifying support from Toronto's fans," DeGeorge said. "I hope to bring not only my love for the game and support for teammates, but to bring my size, speed, and vision on the ice."
