Fillier Named to Fourth IIHF Women's World Championship Roster with Canada
March 07, 2024 | Women's Ice Hockey
Two-time IIHF gold medalist and three-time medalist Sarah Fillier has been name to Canada's roster for the upcoming 2024 IIHF Women's World Championship in Utica, N.Y., set for April 3-14.
Fillier won gold with Canada in 2021 and 2022 and silver in 2023. She is one of just four collegians on the 23-player roster, all of whom are from ECAC Hockey, and she is the fourth-youngest player on the roster.Â
In addition to the three IIHF medals and two golds, Fillier made her Olympic debut in 2022, helping Canada to a gold medal by scoring eight goals at the Games, second-most among all players in the tournament, and 11 points, sixth-most among all players. Together with former Tiger teammate Claire Thompson '20, Fillier and Thompson were the first players in program history to win an Olympic gold medal.
Fillier concluded her Princeton career last weekend by finishing a 30-goal season, the first in her career, 10th in program history and just the third for the program since 2000. Fillier stands second in program history in career assists (101), fourth in career points (194) and sixth in career goals (93). She is one of four players in program history to stand in the top six in all three categories and the only one in that group to have played for the program since 1995.
For the third time in her career, Fillier is a top-10 finalist for the Patty Kazmaier Award, the top honor in women's college hockey, and will learn on March 13 if she has advanced to be a top-three finalist for the award.
