Knight is the fourth member of the Boston Pride to be named Player of the Week this season.
After scoring the game-winning and only goal of Sunday's game, Hilary Knight has earned the NWHL's Player of the Week honors. She joins Zoe Hickel, Brianna Decker, and Jillian Dempsey on the list of Pride players to receive the honor.
At 9:52 in the second period against Buffalo, Knight finally broke the 0-0 tie and got one past Brianne McLaughlin, who stopped 42 of 43 shots. Drawing McLaughlin out of her net, Knight took her own rebound and went behind the goalie to sneak the puck around the post.
