Oliver Cornwall's first season in the PWHL went about as expected. He was certainly not a superstar, but he steadily grew throughout the season, becoming a solid contributor on the Whalers' third pairing. While he was not a significant factor with respect to points production, he was very good defensively and showed off his solid first pass, regularly ranking at the top of the Whalers' roster in relative possession stats. He also developed a bit of an offensive touch as the season wore on, climbing from a very distant last place on the team in points for the first third of the season up to within reach of second last by the end of the season. This was most exemplified in scoring during the Whalers' playoff push. Ultimately, while Oliver's first season wasn't anything special, the growth of the player was amazing and he can be expected to smoothly step into the Whalers' top four next season.
