Johanna Neilson Boynton

Johanna Neilson Boynton

Ownership

Johanna Neilson Boynton, has been a women’s hockey pioneer since she started playing pond hockey with the boys in first grade.  She played on the first women’s team at St. Paul’s School and was recruited to play at Harvard where she was a 2-time captain and winner of the Ivy League championship in 1987 and 1988.  She served as co-chair of the Friends of Harvard Hockey for nearly two decades during which time she was instrumental in attracting funding and supporting the growth of the women’s program.  She and her family coordinated billets for the 2014 US Women’s Olympic Team that trained near her home in Concord, Massachusetts, and she worked with USA Hockey to establish the Sochi Family Fund which enabled the families of US players to travel to Sochi, Russia to see their daughters realize their Olympic dreams.  Hockey has been a central part of her life and she was thrilled by the opportunity to get involved with the Toronto Six.

Angela James

Angela James

General Manager @AngelaJames8

Widely considered the first superstar in women’s hockey, Angela James is a pioneer and trailblazer, being the first and only Black woman to captain Canada’s National Women’s team. On the ice representing her country, James is a four-time gold medalist and was named a recipient of the Order of Hockey in Canada. Additionally, she played 18 years in the Central Ontario Women’s Hockey League, where she was named MVP six times and led the league in scoring eight times. Following a transition to the National Women’s Hockey League, she earned MVP honours in her first season and won a league championship the next year with the Beatrice Aeros. Retiring from competitive hockey soon after, James was tabbed to coach by Hockey Canada, winning a gold medal as an assistant at the 1999 Canada Winter Games. As a head coach in 2001, she led Team Canada en route to a gold medal at the U18 National Championship. Leaving an illustrious mark behind her, James broke a barrier in 2010 as the first woman to be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Among the most decorated in the game, she’s also a member of the IIHF Hockey Hall of Fame, as well as the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame. Now, as she helps to push the game further, James says she’s honoured to have the chance to join the Six. “It means a lot to me to have an opportunity to coach the girls and be a part of the progression and advancement of the women’s game to pro status and beyond," she said. "I grew up playing elite hockey after college and all women should have that same opportunity. Hockey is Hockey. We have a talented team, great coaches and a great administration. I look forward to working with everyone and being apart of the Toronto Six and more especially, winning.”
