Fleet activate Olivia Mobley off LTIR ahead of Game 1 against Charge
A couple of young players are back in the lineup as the PWHL’s postseason is set to begin.
The Boston Fleet announced that forward Olivia Mobley has been activated from long-term injured reserve ahead of Game 1 of the team’s semifinal against the Ottawa Charge. She’ll be joined by defender Mia Biotti, who has been activated to the main roster.
In response, the Fleet has placed forward Loren Gabel and defender Noemi Neubauerova on their reserve list.
Mobley was placed on LTIR back in February after suffering an upper-body injury in practice during the Olympic break. She had appeared in just 10 games prior to getting hurt, scoring three goals and two assists for five points. The former Quinnipiac star has an even plus/minus while averaging 13:42 of ice time per game. Her last appearance came back on Jan. 28 against the New York Sirens.
Mobley was taken by the Fleet in the third round, 18th overall, of the 2025 PWHL Draft.
Biotti, another fellow rookie, was added to the active roster in early January on a 10-day contract after Daniela Pejsova went down with an injury, later signing a standard contract. She appeared in 13 games during the regular season, posting a pair of assists while averaging just over four minutes of ice time per game.
Biotti was put on the reserve list on the final day of the season, making room for Neubauerova, who signed a 10-day and standard contract to get some game action before the playoffs. In the Czech national team star’s three games, she didn’t register a point, playing close to five minutes per game.
Gabel saw action in 16 games this season, scoring a goal and two points for Boston. She posted a +1 rating while logging an average time on ice of 12:08 per contest.
Puck drop between the Fleet and Charge is scheduled for Thursday night, with puck drop set for a little after 7 p.m. ET.
