NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Ella Huber scored the lone goal, and Aerin Frankel saved 23 shots to lead the Boston Fleet to a 1-0 win over the New York Sirens on Thursday.
Huber's goal was unassisted as she beat Kayle Osborne to the puck with 3:45 left in the first period. It came off a bad turnover in front of the net from Sarah Fillier, the PWHL's second-leading assist distributor.
Frankel was particularly important down the stretch, as the Sirens pulled Osborne. Frankel had a key save against Anne Chernowski with 4:07 remaining, and saved four shots inside the final four minutes, including a kick save with about two minutes to go, and a low save against Fillier with 1:04 remaining.
It was Frankel's fourth shutout, tied for the league lead.
The league’s leading goalscorer, Kristýna Kaltounková, was put in the penalty box after retaliating against Jill Saunier for a hit against Micah Zandee-Hart.
