The Boston Fleet travel to face the Seattle Torrent in a Western Conference clash, marking the third meeting this season. Boston has won the first two encounters and aims to complete the sweep, entering on a bounce-back win after a shootout loss. Seattle, struggling with consistency (3-1-1-5 overall, 3-2-0-0 at home), looks to leverage home ice to snap a two-game skid against the Fleet. This matchup features Boston’s balanced attack (2.92 GPG, 3rd in PWHL) against Seattle’s resilient defense (allowing 2.7 GPG), but the Torrent’s recent offensive woes (1.6 GPG in last 5) could tilt the scales.
