I think if women can compete at the level the men are (professionally speaking) then why not. However, hockey is an extremely difficult sport. Women cannot compete with the men. Wickenheiser is a phenomenal player, but I don't think she would survive in the NHL. Those men are bigger, faster and stronger than her. Playing in the European leagues is a lot different than the NHL. I think she'd have her a$$ kicked in the NHL.
The same with Manon Rheaume. She's a great goalie, but she was not good enough to play in the NHL.
