Strong In Transition, Harrison Browne Continues To Open Doors For LGBTQ+ Hockey Players

Harrison Browne had been in many locker rooms throughout his 16-year hockey career. However this one was different. He sat in the locker room surrounded by men. It was his first ice hockey tournament ...

What do we want? The team that is in the playoffs for the first time (Charge) or the defending champions (Frost)?

It's also the second year in a row that the team that "picked" who they wanted to face in the first round was eliminated by them. Curious to see if that remains a rule in the league.

It's official, the Minnesota Frost and Ottawa Charge are both headed to the Walter Cup Finals. Ironic that just a few weeks ago both teams were fighting for a spot in the playoffs.

I am not live tweeting the Montreal/Ottawa game today. I adopted a new buddy earlier today, who keeps attacking the screen and restarting the game making it ~slightly~ difficult to do work.

Katy Knoll makes it a one-goal game for Minnesota. Toronto 3 I Minnesota 2

Toronto fans could be heard chanting "Kick her out" as Britta Curl-Salemme is assessed a major penalty for a check to the head. She has left the game.

Britta Curl is assed with a five minute major match penalty after a check to Fast's head. She is the only Frost player to score tonight. Sceptres get a five-minute power play. Sceptres 3 I Frost (minus Curl now) 1

and again! Gosling scores her second of the night to give Toronto a three-to-zero lead.

Gosling also became the first rookie to score in the 2024-25 PWHL playoffs.

Troy Ryan said he's been "holding the them to a higher expectation" all season to avoid the same result as last year.

Sceptres Allie Munroe said, "definitely a sour taste in my mouth from last year. So, want to do better for sure."

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

Sceptres Blayre Turnbull on the end of the season, "it definitely was different if you think back to last season. But as Troy said, this group hasn't focused too much on what last season was for us. We've all years found a way to focus on our season that we're playing in now."

Carla MacLeod on Gwyneth Philips "She's obviously very talented goalie as well, but she's just been able to really just take the reins and settle in."

Marie-Philip Poulin on Ann-Renée Desbiens, "to see Ann backing us up day in and day out in those games is unbelievable. Every time you see her back there, we have that confidence, that we can try a little bit more, and maybe she can bail us out on our own mistakes."

Montreal's Kori Cheverie said, "there was a lot of ups and downs in a league that is as competitive as it is, it continuously forces you to be at your best, to dive deeper, to navigate how to beat opponents who are working just as hard, to make adjustments to beat you."

Two minutes until @JocksInJills has @PWHL_Montreal on to announce who they will be facing in round one and over 800 people are already waiting.

This is the last handshake we will be seeing from the Fleet for awhile. Fans are chanting "Thank you Boston".

The Boston Fleet season comes to an end after a horrific 8-1 loss against the Minnesota Frost.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Hilary Knight heads to the box for hooking and Klara Hymlarova scores the Frost's eighth goal of the afternoon. You read that right the EIGHTH goal of the day.

4,975 fans came to Lowell for the potential playoff-clinching match up. The 7-1 game is one minute from ending the Fleet's season.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

As I sent that message, the Fleet get on the board. Jessica Digirolamo scores for the Fleet. 3:57 remaining in the game. Frost: 7 Fleet: 1 At least it wasn't a shutout? Trying to find a positive for the Fleet here.

Minnesota widens the gap to 7-0 as Sophie Jaques scores an empty net goal while the Fleet are on the power play.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

With five-minutes to go in the game Dominique Petrie heads to the box for hooking. The Fleet need 6 goals in 5 minutes to keep their season alive.

010

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Brooke McQuigge scores an empty net goal for the Frost. I am pretty sure Peslarova is going to remain in the net for the remaining 12:41, however there is no real way to know given how today has gone. Frost 6 I Fleet 0

010

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Peslarova is out of the net. 13:31 remaining. Stay tuned, she may return soon.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Peslarova is back out of the net and on the bench. The Fleet are a player up.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

In the 21 years of my life I have never once seen a hockey team pull their goalie with over 16 minutes remaining in the game.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

The Fleet have pulled Klara Peslarova with 16:45 remaining in the game. They currently are down 5-0.

Puck has dropped for period three.... Do you believe in miracles?

010

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

The second period is over and the Fleet are in a bad position, trailing 5 goals. Unless they make a comeback in the third, their season is likely over. Frost: 5 Fleet: 0 Shots: Frost 16 Fleet 18 The Boston Fleet need a miracle (five goals) to stay alive.

Both Saulnier and Denisa Krizova are in the box for roughing.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Ottawa won the game in OT. The Fleet are trailing 5 - 0. Unless the Fleet make a miracle comeback, the Fleet are out of the playoffs.

Vani Hanamirian @vanihanamirian.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Although the game is not going in the Fleet's favor, the crowd is loud. Mostly while boo'ing Curl, but what else is there to make noise about in this game?
