Have any women ever played in the NHL?

If women could play in the NHL then there would be a WNHL, but there's not....... A girl name Kassiddey Vladmir played 15 Minutes in the AHL for a team there, but was tooken out becasue of roughness!!

(BE SMART PEOPLE!!)

Actually, not some dumb. Manon Rheaume played one period in an exhibition game for the Tamba Bay Lighting. She gave up 2 goals on 9 shots.
