quat connection her team in crunch time got it done to earn their place here Michaela gr mes the new edition here to work play down below the goal line and anytime it's below the goal line all of a sudden the Defenders turn their toes and that's when players like Megan F look to jump into little soft spots down the middle of the ice so keep an eye on her she's been pretty effective so far in this opening frame ring it around kept in the zone D Feed the right back down Stacy oh on the loose Puck five game point streak right now luris Stacy since the international break gos four assist working hard down low pulle trying to fight for space now pulle Hanah Brandt with a watchful eye a chance in front Franco off sping to the defending position on this faceof Boston looking for room and

opening goal Captain clutch in front back door Stacy gets denied the puck still lose and Frankle got the clutch goal scores in the world staring you down and makes that slot pass you got to move quick Aaron Frankle an incredible save here in game one that playoff hockey mindset unlocked for this goal tender Stacey trying to capitalize kle looking for another chance a high shot off the Box glass Ambrose will play it down low and you see how closely connected they are to be able to make that two three 4ot pass it and then they'll also stretch The Zone once they're in and they found ways to move the coverage it's a real nice play by this line really effective but Aaron Frankle with the task final minute to go Montreal with some push here through the L to Franco but it pops out in behind as P gets trip that's going to be a penalty second period underway here in PL spell chasing history chasing the championship all starts here in Montreal as pulle has controled down low Montreal opening up this second period on the power play they got a minute to go their second player advantage of the game as Ambrose feeds it deep into the Zone Stacy will skate after it connecting on a beautiful chance early in the first period now tapy short-handed on the far side two goal six assists here with Boston since coming over she'll head on the retreat as Ambrose takes another look off

Stacy she'll hold Ambrose center of the ice lets the r shot go a high blocker save by Franco he'll punch it to the corner now Stacy taking a look battling hard against py Marine Murphy settles for Ambrose she'll walk down near side for pulle top of the circles Center Moren Murphy Stacy one time shot and she scores a power play marker for Laura dce to open the scoring in playoff hockey well Laura Stacy is going to strike again and it's on the power play and this is Aaron Ambrose she draws to our one side of the ice now across the mass with the bump position and just a beautiful little bump out for that onetime shot and you see right there by Murphy backand right out so drawing Into the Heart of the coverage so that bump position creates a little bit of a decoy so draws in the coverage when that puck comes to her and then it comes out brown tries to keep it out of the net see that little pop and now all a sudden Megan Keller can't get out and dip back to the power play Stacy St earlier in this period can they do it again Pune on the near side up for Ambrose she'll feed it Stacy back in front looking for a Murphy in the bumper spot Ambrose will hold takes a look pulle down low O'Neal now back out on the power play looking for a quick pass to O'Neal she'll pick it up Austin playing aggressive here out in front Mar Murphy topping ahead for pul he'll turn back Montreal five for two when pul scores O'Neal El in front and that will get cleared by Boston well I like the positioning of Murphy in that bumper spot creating triangle so she will pop a little bit higher to support the puck and make sure that she's available just in case the puck carry gets closed not she can help get possession back Ambrose on the outside walks looking for pulan that cross sice play down low pul on the loose pun has Grant mes for help down low Stacy the two working it up high ccken trying to steer pulan to the corner she has other ideas Stacy now walking in on the backand she'll get spin to the corner under 30 seconds to go here on Montreal's power play a long sh from the point and I understand that shot because there there was two players net front for Aaron Ambrose and Ambrose typically won that gets that puck through anab buou walking the Blue Line drops it back pulan with the one time pat save by Frankle another board battle here just on the half boards as this penalty winds down for Boston out comes the goal score and Hillary Knight return to five on five Al with possession in Boston Zone K on the attack looking for fresh L boo a have to take

right there and some key opportunities for Montreal and then a turnover that created another opportunity Aaron Frankle thought it did go by or through the five hole but it somehow stayed out on the point another shot and D will pull the fifth shot by shot by Gia after review here course Stacy's goal has been changed now it'll be credited to Christen O'Neal Stacy will pick up the assist alongside

around Frankle faing after Stacy with the extra reach now out Cent by speed Hanah as the fin minut here in Period number two credited with that goal here in the second period on the power play well here's the thing the shots are 24 to1 but it's a one goal deficit for Boston so Cory Chev will be talking about you got to you got to put the pressure on but you you got to make your opponent pay especially when you're when you're holding the puck and you have the bulk of the play there's one thing we learn about this Boston team they are opportunistic when the pressure is on they respond another shot here by Montreal this presence of Mind listen when you're one on Three you take that shot you wind up with an offensive zone face off GG Marvin a player that is played in all situations

welcomed addition to this group getting it done just here the other night now Montreal can get this deep in Boston Zone Franco will come out to play the puck there Stacy an early shot for her show you know she's hungry to find the back theet here tonight oh yeah I think she was a little bit frustrated with all the opportunities that she did have but she's a big game player she'll find a way to rise to the occasion one more point for Laura Stacy and she'll Greening League High seven game point streak she did pick up an assist on Christen O'Neal's power play goal that open the scoring in the second period in game one well you know that Boston will certainly want to make sure that they're dictating play right away and it all starts with the four check you want to make sure that you're controlling that real distributor and just look for her to make those slot passes not just shoot from there but create from there let this team in points this season 10 goals 13 assists power play marker to show for that power play continues to eat up they did have a five on duty chance in game number one against Boston s the Box will be topical for Boston as the series continues five penalties in game one time from the most here in the last five games Ambrose feeds it ahead gate D welcom Edition here to Montreal AIA a late tying goal for Boston feeding it ahead time for Costa in the corner Charley jumping on the loose Puck a two two battle to the right of De Costa comes out with it that's he trying to feed a right back down Tav with some room now she's looking for Claire Dalton out to the point cdy Mo at holds find Shirly Austin starting to scan Montreal Zone Healey takes a look a high shot off the back boards well you can see that Montreal's a bit of a five on a die there pulan the center in the middle of the ice trying to keep everything on the perimeter but Boston does a nice job of maintaining possession Lena Mueller now the Switzerland native sending threeyear contract with Boston feeds it ahead surle with a Chance on the backand she'll spin back into the hands of Moren Murphy rer was calling for it you see Sophie Shirley catch up to that puck too she's got a real nice set of hands as well so in tight spaces she can really manipulate her opponent and I think she's got to be effective Boston has to find ways to put Pucks in the net and without Jam Lee rap they're going to need some secondary scoring as well seen Boston have strong third period performances of course overtime as well but it's bringing that energy to the First toy out wide she'll feed it down low kellerer will jump on the loose Puck 39 minutes in that first game Megan Keller a staple here for Boston Grant mes Montreal on the attack da will feed it deep in the zone she'll go for a change got in front of a shot the other day and it was certainly looked like she was laboring and hobbled to the bench nice to see that she's back out here with Montreal for this one playoff series her on the 10day spa Boston a chance to front they score and Boston has opened the scoring here in Montreal oh it's going to be Amanda pelky and it's going to be from below the goal line so the fourth line getting some action out here and they're in the offensive zone and it all comes over the turnover you play the body in the neutral zone and you're able to have a quick transition you get up you get in you get on your horse and it's all about hounding pucks and because they hound and they come too below the goal line py recognizes that puck is going to come to her so she throws it out front you can see AMR Deon sealed to the post and that one just squeaks through with GG Marvin Grant beating across for Hillary Knights High shot gets blocked by Montreal and the send it the distance oh there's certainly a train of thought with the high shot versus the low shot the coaches talk about that sometimes when it is a high shot you can redirect it a little bit better out of the air and get the deflection you want certainly no Megan Keller will shoot from the point a slap shot well I got to get to test everyone who is willing to stand in front of it a wicked shot she has from the blue line as she'll look to let it go here Keller feeds it across for Knight Hillary Knight taking a look she'll let it go TR on gou she got that helper on the OT winner but she also had a couple penalties so could have tacked on another four minutes to her time on Ice if she weren't in the Sin bin it's been a physical series that's for sure as this crowd has just been electric here in the first period I'm sure that noise is driving in the homes back and it has just been so loud Murphy trying to win this draw as fans trying to bring their team G here's some extra energy to close out this first period ran Keller some extra words here behind play Bob stck feeding it ahead for Knight all alone show wait for support feeds it ahead a chance in front for tapan find The Equalizer Mor Murphy feeding it to the point Ambrose needs it near side for pulle Ambrose will take a look Stacy one time gets blocked by D Alo you know Stacy loves to just let it go at the top of the circles trying to feed Marine Murphy in the SL here Deep In the Zone well that was a really nice stick by Hillary Knight on Marine Murphy able to just lift it in time so she can't get that Puck and it goes back to their own Zone and so Montreal has to collect themselves to get it 200 ft fast down the ice Stacey on a six game pointing straight FS It Around the Net pul tries to leave it back for the defender picked up for Murphy pulle up by sambrose settles challenged by Marv and pulle down out in front Murphy with a one time shot an even better stop by Frankle well that's just a a great sequence there

Murphy lets it go and she scores Kristen O'Neal on the power play and Montreal ties it up well pick your poison I mean when you're moving the puck like this and you could just had a rotation between Hulen and chrisen O'Neal and it happens again Hulen Works her way low and that puck Works below the goal line look at where chrisen O'Neal gets to she gets right to the front of the net knowing that that puck had worked its way high for the one time Murphy who's in that bumper position she backs out to be able to support to get that onetime shot and now you got numbers in and around the paint you have to this physicality continues to rise well Court Chev using her top two lines heavily here in the second period you can see coming right back to the pulen line just trying to reestablish the energy after that door Stacey on the turnover O'Neal her shot just wide opportunistic has been Montreal the home here in the second period but here comes Knight her shot just wide great chance for Montreal's Top Line well you see Miss the net again in that slot area and then Hillary Knight responds a favor by missing it when she gets to it moments later waren pushed up against War by David playing physical here on the inside cman trying to cut in front lets the shot go be needed here in game two brown setting right back down Murphy challenging and Courtney Castle putting her fourth line

Mama tennis player D played hockey as well she had five shots in that opening game playing just under 14 minutes and her as well as DUIs have that heavy presence to their game so a lot of the time

turned aside by Campbell off the pad once again those are the ones that they got to get a stick on in front you either have to get a s stick or you need to be able to turn quickly and find that rebound so far both teams have been perfect on the penalty kill throughout this series and Minnesota has not allowed a single short-handed goal even through the regular season so we did show you some of the near chances for Toronto in game two oh they got pretty lucky to not give one up last game here comes Emma malte back up to laurian rjo and right in front Turnbull that one nearly snuck by Rooney was all dialed in kick save Kelly Panic taking it the other way and she's goes all the way to the end boards there Collision that one looked like it shook her up a bit but she got back up right

coming in looking for the first playoff goal Jake she throws it on that for check getting their feet moving getting the puck moving Minnesota determined to get on the score sheet of course get a win here in game three if Toronto takes it they are on to the final they will be playing for the Walter cup they would also become the first team to punch their ticket into the finals well that's just it for Toronto that would be a huge ad Vantage given what's going on in the other Series in the overtime games and the triple overtime game that they just had you want to get that kind of rest so you can face a tired team these two teams have only gone to overtime once it was in the regular season it was in in Minnesota and Minneapolis of course overtime in the regular season is not quite what you're looking at in the playoffs no five on five but here's a chance that one just can't get the shot off coin scoffield keeps the Puck but it's turned over here comes Toronto right in front that one just wide Turnbull and Spooner working together Natalie Spooner keeping it away she throws it towards the net another shot turn B and that one nearly trickles by Matty Ruby what a save wow this is just what happens when you start throwing pucks on net WoW did she ever get to that m Cava now taking it around incredible save by Matty Rooney well that one looked like it was going to get the fortuitous bounce another chance Lan rjo a Defender working alongside Natalie Spooner it does look like you're seeing a different Toronto team this period than you did in the [Applause] first got to wonder when you hear worst period of the Season you how that motivates a team but Minnesota of course having a very strong first period Toronto though with a shot on goal already here in the second now up to three well in a couple good scoring chances one just missed the net there buak beats it down now a chance flarity she [Applause] [Music] scores Minnesota's first ever playoff goal and it's scored by Maggie flare well this is just it we just saw it at the other end of the ice you start throwing pucks on net and anything can happen this is a beautiful shot Natalie Darwin said she wanted this period in this game to be full of Firsts they just got their first goal coming off of a couple of good really good opportunities the other way that one looked like it was just going to bounce in off of Natalie Spooner Minnesota goes back down the other way and they're able to get on the board it's a point shot that has some eyes off sorts of traffic in front this is what Minnesota needed jer's moving One Direction Another Chance right off the draw that time zwinkle first shot block now Taylor heisy taking it all the way around he's got support still keeping Ali Monroe at bay back down Abby borin Minnesota circling Taylor heisy it's just wide another chance now he into the slot and it's batted out while you're starting to see what heisy can bring and she takes that puck for a little skate around the Zone but then is able to get herself open get it back for an opportunity in front and it was in this building that Taylor heisy had an incredible two goal performance Minnesota now getting in close Dum Winkle in the crease now Z select it behind the net think with it is Sarah nurse oh there's the decision that Toronto needed they're getting a little cute with the puck in their own Zone and turning it over this for che's coming in with high heavy pressure you need to move the puck up north and you need to move it hard book finder finds Michaela Cava and there's a shot on Gamble loose pck Hannah Miller has it he scored the empty n in game two on a five game point streak as well seven points in those five games for number 34 rova to St line Toronto with just five shots here's a chance that one Rooney reads it all the way still in the Minnesota zone so that's six shot on goals shots on goal for Toronto we're approaching the halfway mark not quite of the second period but nearly there more than 8 minutes in been solid every chance that she has had to face and that was another one great scoring chance for Toronto she's got to get out face the shot yeah Minnesota picking up those Pucks in the middle and Toronto's so good with it that they [Applause] score Minnesota capitalizes on a mistake and Dena crova with her very first pwl playoff goal makes it two nothing Minnesota well and it just seems like once you start to get a little puck luck you start to get a whole bunch and this is just an innocent play Puck thrown in Campbell freezes it and then stands up goes to freeze it again and loses it kova gets there and is able to poke it Pastor Campbell loses this Puck so when she stands up I don't think she knows where it is Cova gets there first and pokes it in you got a team that hasn't been scoring goals that is exactly what and now another chance Far Side Minnesota looks for the room right in front it's cleared out by Blair Turnbull mava with a hit and that's just a huge back check oh here's a big chance right in front going scoffield kick save a penalty on the way we've got another power play on the way for Minnesota Rooney to the

see the heavy work below the goal line look at the evasive play by Grant mentis with her heads up just coming past the post so she's going to draw Marvin down a little bit below the goal line with her and that's going to open up the scene right there and where is pulen lost in coverage in and around the paint in her wheelhouse and she is able to bury it you talk about clutch she doesn't have a

perimeter Puck movement that you can get it through and you can see in that slot area it's going to be a bit of a double stack you got O'Neal off to the side just in case there is a rebound because you know how aggressive Frankle is so if it pops out she's going to have an empty net but it's going to be Murphy you can see her net front uncontested there between both the Geral and Keller no one takes her and she's able to get her stick on it for that redirect and right through Aon getting to the spot where she could get her stick on the puck how about that Meen Murphy here for his playoff

creas Dean cannot get across in time and that's going to go off the inside of the bar yep it does and it comes right out so instead of it being a one goal game you're in a situation where Boston is on

Puck dropping Away We Go game one of the pwl finals is on underway a chance to Hoist the Walter cup it's on the line in that's how theyve approached the season all year long and is paying off for them here in playoffs they're down by two in the series against Toronto came back to reverse the sweep and punch their ticket to the finals heisy in control reverse pass a great feed Cava tries to tuck it home rims it around and she scores Michaela Cava opening the scoring in game one well you knew that they had to be effective this line that Top Line coin scoffield heisy and Cavin it's all off the face off you can see St line on the back finding a lane that's off the backboard and then it's all about recovery hounding the puck and that's exactly what Kendall coin scoffield does and guess what when you hound you wind up with possession you force your opponent into a vulnerable spot what a backhand pass bye hey to Cava who elects to take it around the net so she now has Frankle who is committed to that strong side poster to get across to that other post to push across quickly period simply outstanding in two periods she saw 18 shots on net been busy in the three- game suite for Boston but you do crunch those numbers four games an extra period of seven minutes and 11 seconds you think Minnesota went five games been a road warrior here Mueller tries with a shot just wide for Boston D winkled looking to get going for Minnesota Boston looking to respond as Cava open the scoring here in the first period long shot a chance in front of the backand TA E why of course and Boston ties it [Music] up well suzan happy do it again and finding the back of the net to get the equalizer and this starts off of the rush this is a rush team and they get in you can see Mueller just that dangle as she changes the point of attack and it's allil recovery you take the shot you got to find a way to get it back and that's what happens they Converge on the net below the goal line creating some space go low to high and then go east west get that puck through to the net and you can see tapy coming through that slot area Lena Mueller as well causes A disruption right there tap with the right I give them I know that they can come up big in clutch when it matters the most they have done just that battle here on the half boards K in with the chance feeds it to the point another shot and Franco will juggle his lines a little bit he said Abby burin brought a lot of physical prowess to his lineup something that clearly you know they they don't have a ton of their more of a finesse team have familiarity with heis and zwinkle of course go for graduates now Boston djo walking in her shot off of Shirley and that gets redirected to the corner so Shirley now battling hard in control takes a look tries to tap it out in front well you're seeing the game of Jessica DJ Alo just really Elevate with her confidence and she's really progressed through this playoff you know that first round I mean in game three she she played just shy of 30 minutes with five hits and we've already seen her with a couple in this evening's game Rooney on P now Shirley on the outside tapan is going to go for a change instead she'll play the puck drops it back for Jess Healey playing with the Buffalo butes just last year some increased minutes here on the blue line for Boston Conan looking to settle this jumping Puck you dipping right back down deep in the zone now stack line feads it to the point more and settles it sends it on that a chance for a rebound a great chance for Jam Lee rre bringing the physicality here in Period number two DOA working hard on the outside for Boston four coming over joining the pwhl heisy now on the turnover and she scores picks the corner and gets the go-ahead goal for Minnesota they are in the lead [Applause] 2-1 well Taylor heis is going to get her third in two games and this is going to come off Kendall coin scoffield in her positioning she's above the passing off and so the the melee happens in the neutral zone and you can see on recovery Sydney Moren is coming behind the bed and she gets squeezed there by Cava but look at this positioning above the puck once you see that channel is coming down it's going to be Kendall coin Scofield that also comes above it and that is where the damage happens and the turnover happens and it's on heis stick and she's a right-handed shot and she's almost for all teams that she's played on you think about the Patty kmay Award winner back in 2019 with Clarkson winning back to- back Natty championships there so and of course a phf MVP back in 2223 with 40 points in 22 games and that was a historic night in Detroit a Little Caesar's Arena most fans to ever come out to a pro women's hockey game on us soil 13,736 fans watch Boston and Ottawa go head-to-head but all the way to his shootout Hillary Knights a hero in that game now when Kowski scores and she ties it up here in the second period [Music] it's not about the minutes it's about the moments Taylor wowski does it again for Boston well she doesn't it starts with a hit right through that neutral ice and you can see that hit by wowski and she continues on you can see GG Marvin trying to push it below the goal line it's all about recovering that puck she's trying to get it back to the net wiskowski who entered who started with the hit in the neutral zone finds a way through that slot area you can also see Jam Lee ratre getting a kick at it but wosi comes from the wall to the slot area and absolutely finishes it off and you talk about forth lines making a different wowski who got the game winner that overtime [Applause] winner what a moment for Taylor wosi and Boston now Shirley looking for Megan Keller in the slot for the go-ahead goal well that opportunity comes from aan Keller it was a little bit of a miscue but again looking to stretch the neutral ice now she's up in on the attack a GF heting right back down chel first on it trying to outwork channel she looks for an option she'll start the cycle Mueller will pick it up she has frin down low with her Mueller in full control bang pass for frockin she'll take a look feads it to the point for DJ Alo she'll walk the blue line as D Alo takes a look the missa native he right back deep into the Zone Mueller looking for a passing option leads to a turnover Minnesota hoping to capitalize and here comes Taylor heisy this a 2-1 game earlier in the period gets taken down the half boards B Mueller had some nice offensive zone possession but it was on the perimeter sometimes you got to look to just attack the middle of the ice because Minnesota will push you and leave you out there if they can stack line pushed off by Mueller pux lose a foot race first on at bookbinder fa Point New York looking up ice for buak auson will go D to D frin has some room look for Hillary Knight on the far side Al Mo will pick up the Pucket Center E's stackline with some time the time her

branch is going to get the goal but this is going to come off some incredible work on the for check when you hound Puck you create turnovers and when you send players in on Le deck line coming from both sides you're going to force the squeeze pelky does a nice job disrupting but guess who comes in Aly able to collect the puck looking for the wraparound but now all of a sudden you can see that Minnesota is on their heels another takeway Megan Keller the defender jumps in knowing that they're vulnerable now all of a sudden they've got that full possession and they got everyone running around Hannah brand lost all alone off of the wall gets to the dot and goes a huge goal for Hannah Brandt and that chemistry her and Hillary Knight to start that scoring opportunity on time teammates of the national team linemates even but they even play PPA team saw it together as well with they combined for 11 points and now Mueller in the slot Tres to the shot Roy will make the save [Applause] Alina Mueller will drop back she finds Megan Keller five penalties for Meg Keller now in the playoffs started off this game in the box also to fight off Minnesota's power play sh tries for the backhand shot followed up by Emily brown but just couldn't quite get it on net full sale change for Boston and out comes Hannah Brand's line Chanel looking for the stretch play for Michaela cava he's got a goal and an assist here tonight well and a lot of their opportunities are coming off of the rush you saw the regroup with Megan Keller there that's where they like to generate and Megan Keller has an opportunity to make a first pass she's going to make it so two unanswered goals now for Boston when Coy brand just 2 minutes and 21 seconds aparty Frankin chases after it she'll leave it for brand on the far boards who's taken down by Cava hazy hey jumps in Jake now tries for the wrist shot redirected off the backward Point scoffield looking for the wraparound play Cava a strong chance for her under three to go here in the second period points Goldfield taking a look drops it down Cava waits for back door and she scores the arms out the whistle goes Taylor heisy has tied the game you got to love the back and forth action and now Taylor is going to get another one and it's going to be the equalizer now here so she has really heated up and showing a reason why she was number one in the first ever pwhl draft I mean there is a reason because she is a sniper but it all starts with a point shot listen if you can get the puck through you're going to find ways to recover pucks and that's exactly what happens as kendle coin Scofield is walking down that puck down low Cava sees that back door and what a beautiful play and that's two sequences for Cava on the same ship but I love the way she draws DJ Al to her you can see Greco the defender coming down the middle of the ice and that creates confusion right you got a Defender coming down the middle of the ice so now everyone's got a track to her so guess what happens the back door opens and they're able to put it in from Lake City Minnesota Minnesota is four for four when Taylor heisy scores and it's interesting how the the goenda here too Kenzie a high shot and she scores J Heely from the blue line and Boston redeems the [Music] lead toot and good things can happen Jess hey getting her first playoff goal well Jess

they're able to be hockey players and train to be hockey players the skill and the quality of game has just hit New Heights and you know we think about where this is going to be in the next 2 or 3 years it's going to be incredible well they have the commitment and now they can go all in and get compensated for it but I do have a question for you J with the draft upcoming here if you had to pick your Dream Center and Winger in a world where you could draft Your Dream Center your dream Winger one as Hillary Knight tries to get Boston on the board and a rebound chance for Marvin I mean these pairs are fair game for you to pick on your dream forward line J who do you think you'd want to take in a draft well i' I'd have to take Mary phip pulen I had a chance to play with her for many years and lots of respect for her um again in the journey that I've been through and and the respect I have for Hillary Knight and Kendall coin scoffield you know it' be great to play with them and then you look on the back end and you know I love the way rata fast plays in Toronto I love the way Becky or sorry Becky Keller we play was good you can put her you can put her back she did give you that uh that assist on that overtime winner that game winner in Salt Lake City so nice shout out yeah that's true another great Keller Megan Keller I take her on my team anytime um so but then we look at this draft class that's coming up and this draft class is so deep um you know we're going to have seven rounds at the draft and the young superstars that are going to enter into this league next year is

longevity for athletes and it's going to allow them to play longer uh train properly stay healthier and that's that's all really important the other thing I think that you know we have to note is how this is going to impact the international game and you talk about tapy we talk about Mueller and some of these players that are now here day in and day out and we've seen a huge response of European athletes that are declaring for the draft and so also really excited about how we can impact the game on the global level well and and some coming from those European leagues he looking like Nora
