For today’s rematch the Thunder were selling t-shirts in memory of starting goalie Erica Howe’s father, Peter Howe, to raise money for the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada.
Markham announced three scratches for the game, Nicole Kosta, Laura McIntosh and Fielding Montgomery, leaving them with 17 players dressed. With three forwards out, defender Megan Delay moved up to forward. This is going to be an ongoing problem for them until after the Olympics, so we’re keeping an eye on the situation.
Markham got on the board much faster than they did in Saturday’s game, scoring twice in the first three minutes.
