If only the game were first goal wins; we would be feeling very differently today.
The Fleet’s captain; Hilary Knight, took advantage of the new “No Escape” rule and put the Fleet up three minutes into the season. Problem is that same scenario was reversed as Toronto was able to get a shorthanded jailbreak goal less then nine minutes later. While Boston showed life in this frame, it was a short lived effort.
The second saw no scoring, but a few good opportunities for Toronto that were denied by some good defense out of Megan Keller and the pre-requisitely incredible goaltending of Aerin Frankel.
