Key Player Matchups
Goaltending: Aerin Frankel (Boston) vs. Raygan Kirk (Toronto). Frankel has posted consecutive shutouts and leads the league in several save categories. Kirk earned a shutout in the Mar 17 win over Boston and has been Toronto’s backbone. Expect a duel between two of the PWHL’s top netminders.
Offense/Defense: Boston’s Megan Keller (D, 6G-11A-17P) and Susanna Tapani (F, 8G-7A-15P) lead the way, with Alina Müller (3G-12A-15P) providing playmaking. Toronto counters with forward Daryl Watts (one of the league’s top scorers earlier) and a gritty group that can generate chances off the rush. Boston’s defense (led by Keller and Haley Winn) has been excellent at limiting high-danger chances.
Special Teams: Boston has been strong on the power play and penalty kill; Toronto has shown ability to capitalize on opportunities but can be vulnerable.
