For a period with no goals Fleet fans could walk away from the period with their heads held high. The teams traded penalties early in the period but Nicole Hensley and Aerin Frankel acted like the Team USA goalies they are and stood tall. Minnesota had a few good chances but the end of the period was all Fleet as they had some encouraging sustained pressure.
The second started off well for both teams but midway through the front fell off as Minnesota notched two quick goals. Boston showed little life in the period. While the shots were close to the Frost’s tally the Fleet had no dangerous opportunities despite being down two goals.
