On today’s Women’s Hockey Report, Erica L Ayala and Rachel Donner break down the first three games of the PWHL Playoffs for the 2nd ever Walter Cup. We look at the Toronto Scepters vs Minnesota Frost series, with a suspension levelled against Frost forward Britta Curl, and a 1-1 result so far. We also touch on goaltending, the power play, Lee Stecklein dominance, Kendall Coyne-Schofield’s impact, Micaela Cava, and Julia Gosling.
Then we dig into game one of the Montreal Victoire vs Ottawa Charge series, where the Charge have taken a 1-0 lead. We talk about the goaltending of Gwyneth Philips, the Charge’s defensive play, Brianne Jenner, Shiann Darkangelo, Marie-Philip Poulin, and more.
Finally we discuss the upcoming PWHL Entry Draft and how expansion will affect it, the news that University of Minnesota player Abbey Murphy and University of Wisconsin player Lacey Eden will return to the NCAA, and other considerations.
