The Pride were about an hour late arriving to the Aviator Sports & Events Center in Brooklyn, and by the end of the night the New York Riveters were likely wishing they never showed up at all.
In the first installment of what will hopefully one day be a classic NY-Boston rivalry, our ladies in black and gold defeated the Rivs 7-1. Yes, you read that right, and Hilary Knight didn't even score.
Zoe Hickel opened the scoring with a backhanded shot, assisted by Knight, less than a minute after the puck dropped. Brianna Decker followed that up with her first goal of the season as well.
