It's not quite that. It's the players from the PWHPA that will fill the teams, possibly management from the PHF is involved though. Almost none, if any, of the PHF players will get signed for the new league. The hockey will be great to watch but it's unfortunate how poorly they handled the end of the PHF...players signing 50-100+K contracts right up until the day the league folded. Harsh business i guess.

Couldn't the PHF players just join the PWHPA to be eligible?

Guess I was wrong and many of them did get drafted. Will be some great hockey to watch for sure.
