When the Vancouver Giants selected her with the 268th pick in the 13th round of the Western Hockey League Draft, she became the first-ever female skater picked in the WHL, Quebec Major Junior Hockey League or Ontario Hockey League prospect drafts.
With the 268th overall selection (Round 13) the Vancouver Giants have selected 2007-born defender Chloe Primerano (North Vancouver, BC) in the 2022 @TheWHL Prospects Draft.
Chloe Primarano is the first ever female to be selected in a WHL Bantam Draft.
Pimerano, a defender from Vancouver who played for BWC Academy, joined Sportsnet's Ron MacLean, Kevin Bieksa, Elliotte Friedman and Kelly Hrudey.

During the clip, Primerano said she tries to model her game after Edmonton Oilers defenseman Duncan Keith among others. "Chloe's play this season in the top U15 league in Canada made her fully deserving of this selection today. The Vancouver Giants are happy to recognize her strong play by drafting her to the Western Hockey League," Barclay Parneta, GM of the Vancouver Giants, said
