Seattle Puts Hannah Bilka on LTIR After Olympic Injury, Signs Rookie Jada Habisch

The loss strips Seattle of a U.S. Olympic standout on a last-place roster that remains 11 points off the playoff pace.

Overview

  • The Torrent announced that forward Hannah Bilka will miss the rest of the 2025-26 season with an upper-body injury and was placed on long-term injured reserve.
  • Bilka’s injury dates to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan, where she tied for the tournament lead with four goals and finished with seven points.
  • Seattle signed fourth-round 2025 draft pick Jada Habisch to a standard player agreement and she is expected to enter the lineup against the Boston Fleet.
  • Habisch, 23, played five seasons at UConn and led the Huskies in goals in each of her final three seasons.
  • Captain Hilary Knight is also sidelined after clarifying she sustained a torn MCL at the Olympics, further thinning a Seattle team that sits 11 points behind the New York Sirens for the final playoff spot.
