Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PWHL Fan at 4.9 against TopShelf Hockey's 3.7. PWHL Fan also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (602 vs 3). TopShelf Hockey's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 88%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
PWHL Fan holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PWHL Fan has 602 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of TopShelf Hockey's written reviews are positive against 88% of PWHL Fan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TopShelf Hockey ships an update weekly, PWHL Fan every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on September 3, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
