What do we want? The team that is in the playoffs for the first time (Charge) or the defending champions (Frost)?
May 17, 2025 at 1:47 AM
It's also the second year in a row that the team that "picked" who they wanted to face in the first round was eliminated by them. Curious to see if that remains a rule in the league.
May 17, 2025 at 1:46 AM
It's official, the Minnesota Frost and Ottawa Charge are both headed to the Walter Cup Finals. Ironic that just a few weeks ago both teams were fighting for a spot in the playoffs.

I am not live tweeting the Montreal/Ottawa game today. I adopted a new buddy earlier today, who keeps attacking the screen and restarting the game making it ~slightly~ difficult to do work.

Toronto wins game one.
May 8, 2025 at 1:35 AM
Katy Knoll makes it a one-goal game for Minnesota.

Toronto 3 I Minnesota 2
May 8, 2025 at 1:06 AM
Toronto fans could be heard chanting "Kick her out" as Britta Curl-Salemme is assessed a major penalty for a check to the head. She has left the game.
May 8, 2025 at 12:36 AM
Britta Curl is assed with a five minute major match penalty after a check to Fast's head. She is the only Frost player to score tonight. Sceptres get a five-minute power play.

Sceptres 3 I Frost (minus Curl now) 1
May 8, 2025 at 12:35 AM
Minnesota strikes back on the power play as Britta Curl-Salemme gets the Frost on the board.

Sceptres 3 I Frost 1

and again! Gosling scores her second of the night to give Toronto a three-to-zero lead.
May 8, 2025 at 12:17 AM
Gosling also became the first rookie to score in the 2024-25 PWHL playoffs.
May 8, 2025 at 12:13 AM
Julia Gosling nets another for the Sceptres, giving them a two goal lead over Minnesota.

After the first 20 minutes of PWHL playoff hockey,

Toronto: 1 Minnesota: 0
May 7, 2025 at 11:41 PM
Blayre Turnbull strikes first in the PWHL playoffs, giving Toronto a 1-0 lead over Minnesota.
May 7, 2025 at 11:31 PM
This is not a drill. Playoff hockey starts now.

Troy Ryan said he's been "holding the them to a higher expectation" all season to avoid the same result as last year.
May 4, 2025 at 11:25 PM
Sceptres Allie Munroe said, "definitely a sour taste in my mouth from last year. So, want to do better for sure."
May 4, 2025 at 11:22 PM
Sceptres Blayre Turnbull on the end of the season, "it definitely was different if you think back to last season. But as Troy said, this group hasn't focused too much on what last season was for us. We've all years found a way to focus on our season that we're playing in now."

Carla MacLeod on Gwyneth Philips "She's obviously very talented goalie as well, but she's just been able to really just take the reins and settle in."
