Game Recaps

Boston v. Minnesota – Game 4 – 6p ET

• In what could be the decisive Game 4 of the PWHL Finals, Minnesota would look to remain undefeated at home as they host Boston, and after a scoreless sixty minutes of hockey, this game would require overtime, and in double overtime it was thought that Sophie Jacques would secure the Walter Cup for Minnesota, but it would be deemed no goal due to goalie interference, and shortly after Alina Muller would score to give Boston the 1-0 overtime victory over Minnesota to force the decisive Game 5 back in Boston. Aerin Frankel would stop all 33 shots faced to earn the shutout victory, while Nicole Hensley would stop 32 out of 33 shots faced in a valiant effort for Minnesota.
