The CWHL schedule resumed tonight with the final GTA rivalry game of the year. It was the Markham Thunder’s Do It For Daron fundraiser. The Thunder forwent their normal green jerseys for purple in support of mental health initiatives for youth.
Amanda Makela started in net for Toronto, with Sami Jo Small on the bench. Sonja van der Bliek has not played since January 20, due to what was described as “a nagging injury”. Sydney Kidd seems to be back to defence alongside Shannon Moulson on the starting pair and Carolyne Prévost, Emily Fulton and Brittany Zuback made up the starting forward line.
