Minnesota fans, and probably the team as well, were hoping for a bounce back win at TRIA Rink this afternoon. However, Gigi Marvin tossing the puck into goal past goaltender Amanda Leveille after coming down the right side at 2:27 did not bode well for that plan. McKenna Brand had the lone assist. The Whitecaps had a great chance when Sadie Lundquist’s drop pass to Amy Schlagel went straight into Katie Burt’s glove. There was a fair amount of rink racing as both teams tried to make chances and then Kendall Coyne Schofield went straight for the net with the puck and, if the lone Boston defender in front of Burt hadn’t repeatedly fallen on her knocking her out of position, she would have had a great chance on goal.
