The Toronto Furies kicked off their season in fine fashion this weekend, walking away with two wins against the Boston Blades.
Saturday, October 15: 2-1 Furies (OT)
The Furies held their home opener in conjunction with the Etobicoke Dolphins’ Pink the Rink tournament in support of breast cancer charities. Dolphins of various levels skated out with the teams during the introductions. Dolphins’ representative Colleen Muise and CWHL Commissioner Brenda Andress dropped the ceremonial puck. Players used pink tape on sticks and socks, and a pink “chuck a puck” was held during the second intermission.
This game started out in familar fashion as Natalie Spooner got the puck, dodged around everyone and took a shot on net.
