It was an action packed Saturday across the Premier Hockey Federation with new records in Boston and overtime thrillers in Buffalo and New Jersey.
Minnesota Whitecaps 1, Boston Pride 5
Corinne Schroeder added another record to her rookie resume earning the most single season wins in PHF history with 18. Her 33-save performance made the mark in Boston’s weekend and season sweep over Minnesota. Offensively the Pride outshot the Whitecaps 51-34 and had multi-point performances by Aneta Tejralova, Jillian Dempsey, and Christina Putigna who each scored a goal and an assist, and Loren Gabel with two assists to bring her league-leading point total to 38.

Minnesota’s only goal came at 16:44 of the third period on the power play but was a special milestone moment for Jonna Albers who recorded her 100th career PHF point.
