Noora Tulus (born 15 August 1995) is a Finnish ice hockey player who is a forward and member of the Finnish national team. She has played with Bryäs IF in the Swedish Women's Hockey League (SDHL) since July 2025.

Playing career

[edit | edit source]

Tulus left Finland to play in the Riksserien, now the Swedish Women's Hockey League, joining Luleå HF/MSSK just before their playoff run in the 2015–16 season. After scoring eight points in the five remaining regular season games, she added another six points in seven playoff games as Luleå won their first Riksserien championship.[1] After the end of the season, she decided to stay in Luleå and signed an extension with the club.[2]

Tulus scored the game-winning goal in the 2018 Champions Cup, held between Luleå and the NWHL's Isobel Cup champions, the Metropolitan Riveters.[3]

In the 2019–20 season, Tulus scored 24 points in 22 games[citation needed] despite missing several weeks due to a foot injury.[4][5] Luleå returned to the championship finals for the third year in a row before the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In November 2020, Tulus and four Finnish Luleå teammates were unable to return to Sweden after a national team camp where a player tested positive for COVID-19. Finnish law at the time required them to remain quarantined for ten days, causing them to miss multiple games.[6]

In the 2023–24 season, her last in Sweden, Tulus was the leading scorer in the SDHL, recording 22 goals and 61 points in 36 games. At the conclusion of her nine-year SDHL career, Tulus had won seven league titles.[7]

On 10 June 2024, Tulus was drafted in the third round, 13th overall by PWHL New York in the 2024 PWHL draft.[8] She signed a two-year contract with the club on 25 July.[9]

International career

[edit | edit source]

Tulus made her World Championship debut at the 2015 World Championship, not picking up any points in five games.[10] She represented Finland again at the 2016 and 2017 World Championships. She scored six points in seven games at the 2019 World Championship, including two assists in the semifinal upset victory, as Finland won their first-ever silver medal.
