Mikyla Grant-Mentis, a former Premier Hockey Federation Most Valuable Player, has agreed to a one-year contract with the Buffalo Beauts, General Manager Nate Oliver confirmed to the Buffalo News on Sunday night.

The deal is expected to be announced Monday, Oliver said.

Grant-Mentis’ contract with the Beauts was first reported by TSN’s Chris Johnston. According to the report, Grant-Mentis will receive approximately $100,000 Canadian. That would be about $78,000 in U.S. dollars and account for more than 10% of the team’s salary cap.

Oliver said he could not discuss financial details. The PHF does not make players’ salaries public.

Grant-Mentis, the leading scorer in Merrimack College history, had a breakout season in 2020-21 with the Toronto Six when she was named the then-National Women’s Hockey League MVP and Newcomer of the Year – the first Black player to win either award.
