The Toronto Six were a professional women's ice hockey team in Toronto, Ontario, playing out of Canlan Ice Sports – York. They were one of two Canadian teams in the Premier Hockey Federation (PHF) along with the Montreal Force, and the first expansion team to join the league since the collapse of the Canadian Women's Hockey League (CWHL) in 2019. The team was founded in 2020 with their inaugural regular season held in Lake Placid, New York, followed by the Isobel Cup playoffs in Brighton, Massachusetts.

The Six won the 2023 Isobel Cup.[2] This made the Six the PHF's final championship team as the league and its teams were dissolved to make way for the new Professional Women's Hockey League, a unified professional league effectively consolidating the PHF and the Professional Women's Hockey Players Association.[3]
