In NWHL action…
In the lone NWHL contest yesterday, the Minnesota Whitecaps defeated the Buffalo Beauts 2-1 and moved the Whitecaps to a 6-0-0 record on the season. Minnesota’s Amy Menke scored the game winner in the third period.
Minnesota entered the weekend undefeated with Buffalo and the Boston Pride, but with the two wins over the Beauts and Boston’s loss to the Metropolitan Riveters on Saturday, Minnesota remains the lone undefeated team in the NWHL.
Minnesota would score the first goal of the game just 19 seconds into the contest with Kate Schipper scoring. This was Schipper’s second goal of the weekend.
Buffalo would be awarded a penalty shot when the puck was covered in the crease with Dani Cameranesi scoring into the top left corner to tie the game at 1.
Minnesota Whitecaps remain undefeated with 2-1 win over Buffalo Beauts.
Coming up next on the NWHL Schedule:
The league will be taking a break for the upcoming Four Nations tournament and will return on November 17th.
- November 17th: Buffalo Beauts at Boston Pride
November 18th: Connecticut Whale at Metropolitan Riveters
November 18th: Buffalo Beauts at Boston Pride
The Minnesota Whitecaps return to NWHL action December 1st and 2nd when they take on the Boston Pride TRIA Rink in St. Paul, Minnesota.
