Cara Gardner Morey Moves From GM to Head Coach of Vancouver Goldeneyes

The PWHL will run the search for a new general manager to speed Vancouver’s front-office rebuild after a disappointing inaugural season.

Overview

  • The club announced on Thursday that Gardner Morey is relinquishing her general manager role to become the Goldeneyes’ head coach for the 2026–27 season.
  • Morey said she missed coaching and wants to directly shape play after building the roster during Vancouver’s first PWHL year.
  • As GM last season she signed key players such as Sarah Nurse, Emerance Maschmeyer and Sophie Jaques and used the No. 1 draft pick on defender Caroline Harvey.
  • Vancouver currently lists 16 players under contract and has not publicly announced a contract for Caroline Harvey, leaving roster spots still to be filled before the season starts.
  • The PWHL will oversee the search for a new Vancouver general manager, a move that places the league at the center of the team’s personnel decisions as it prepares for a late-November season start.
