Five minutes into the second period, Haley Winn sent a high pass over the neutral zone and straight into the fleet zone. Ella Huber picked it up and skated it to the net. She sent a high shot into the top corner for her first PWHL goal.
Just four minutes later, Megan Keller had the puck near the boards and passed it to Jamie Lee Rattray in center ice. She fired and Osborne made the first save. Liz Schepers grabbed the rebound and scored her first goal with the Fleet.
Despite twelve chances for the Sirens in the final frame compared to the Fleet’s seven, Frankel held on and completed the shutout against the Sirens. This was her third shutout in just five games this season.
