The 2015–16 Boston Pride season was the first in franchise history and participated in the National Women's Hockey League's inaugural season.

Regular season

[edit]
  • October 11: Hilary Knight would score the first goal in Pride franchise history at the 12:08 mark of the first period. Said goal was scored against Buffalo Beauts goaltender Brianne McLaughlin. Knight would score again in the second period, becoming the first player in NWHL history to log a multi-goal game. Kacey Bellamy would earn two assists, becoming the first blueliner in NWHL history to log a multi-point game.
  • December 27: With several members of the Boston Pride honoring commitments with the US national team over the 2015 holiday season, general manager Hayley Moore would suit up in a game as an emergency player as the Pride skated against the Connecticut Whale. Moore would participate in 1 faceoff in a 2–1 final for the Pride as the Whale endured their first loss in franchise history.[Game 1]
