Alex Carpenter's 2024-25 season with the New York Sirens was a mix of individual success and team disappointment. Despite the Sirens finishing at the bottom of the PWHL standings for the second consecutive year, Carpenter remained a key offensive contributor, showcasing her skill and experience. However, her efforts weren't enough to lift the team into playoff contention, and the off-season brought significant change as she signed with PWHL Seattle.

Carpenter played 26 of the Sirens' 30 games, missing time due to an injury sustained in late January. Despite the setback, she finished third on the team in scoring with 20 points, tallying 11 goals and nine assists. Her contributions were crucial to the Sirens' offense, as the team struggled with depth scoring throughout the season. Only six Sirens players reached double digits in points, highlighting the reliance on their top players like Carpenter, Sarah Fillier, Jessie Eldridge, and Ella Shelton, who accounted for a significant percentage of the team's total goals.

Beyond her point production, Carpenter brought valuable experience and leadership to the Sirens. Serving as an alternate captain, she demonstrated her commitment to the team both on and off the ice. Her faceoff win percentage of 52.8% (227 wins out of 430 attempts) showcased her reliability in crucial situations. She also maintained a plus-5 rating, indicating her positive impact on the ice during her shifts.

Individually, Carpenter's performance in the 2024-25 season solidified her status as one of the league's top players. She ranks third all-time in PWHL career points with 43 in 50 games and third in career points-per-game average at 0.86. Carpenter also sits tied for first all-time in power play points, recording 18 (5G, 13A) across two seasons. In the inaugural season, Carpenter tied for second in league scoring with 23 points in 24 games. She was voted a First Team All-Star and was also named a finalist for both the Forward of the Year and Billie Jean King MVP awards.

However, the Sirens' overall struggles overshadowed Carpenter's individual achievements. The team's inability to consistently win games, particularly at home where they had a poor record of 1-3-1-8 at the Prudential Center, ultimately led to their last-place finish. Despite the promising play of rookie Sarah Fillier, the lack of scoring depth and defensive lapses proved to be too much to overcome.

The off-season brought significant change for Carpenter as the Sirens chose not to protect her in the expansion draft. This decision allowed PWHL Seattle to sign her to a one-year contract for the 2025-26 season. While losing Carpenter is a significant blow to the Sirens, the move provides her with a fresh opportunity to contribute to a new team with high aspirations.

Carpenter joins a talented Seattle roster that includes USWNT teammates Hilary Knight and Cayla Barnes, as well as Canadian National Team member Danielle Serdachny. Her experience, skill, and leadership will be invaluable as Seattle looks to build a competitive team in its inaugural season. As she moves on to the next chapter of her PWHL career, Carpenter leaves behind a legacy of individual excellence and unwavering commitment to the New York Sirens. Her contributions will be remembered as the team looks to rebuild and strive for greater success in the future.
