NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Five different players scored for New York, including top overall draft pick Kristyna Kaltounkova, Kayle Osborne made 20 saves and the Sirens won their home opener 5-1 over the expansion Vancouver Goldeneyes on Saturday.
New York (2-0-0-1) jumped on top early with a goal by rookie Nicole Vallario barely four minutes in and added a goal late in the first period on a tic-tack-toe play with Sarah Fillier tapping at the back post.
Paetyn Levis made it 3-0 less than a minute into the second period with another goal from the edge of the crease and midway through Kristin O'Neill scored on a shorthanded breakaway.
Sophie Jaques got the Goldeneyes (0-1-0-2), who lost 5-1 at Ottawa in their last outing, on the board early in the third period but 3 1/2 minutes later Kaltounkova answered from close range.
All six goals were season firsts. Anne Cherowski, New York's second round draft pick, had a pair of assists.
Vancouver plays at Boston on Wednesday.
