04:01and find a way to continue the momentum
04:04well quickness and explosiveness

04:08and then all of a sudden you've got the power of stride

04:14and then she finishes it off
04:15so she starts the play

05:03shot gets in front of it
05:04and the puck stopper jumps on top of it
05:07to get a stoppage in play
05:12minnesota's been very impressive to watch
05:13in the offensive zone
05:14and they lead it here in the first
05:19and they win the draw
05:20now let's see what they can do with it
05:22vancouver's got the puck inside the defensive zone
05:34puck possession so critical
05:36another faceoff coming up here
05:42vancouver's got a hold of the puck
05:44that's a huge draw by the center james
05:46coming off the nice and you know you need a change
05:48you've got to find a way to win that
05:49and get out of your zone
05:52vancouver's got the puck in their own end
05:54and that's a great heads up play in the offensive zone
06:00tries to feed it over to bell
06:02and that's a great read to force the turnover
06:06strong use of the body to force the puck loose
06:10slides it on over to bell
06:13slides it across
06:17and she gets a piece of the puck with the glove
06:20the puck's on the inside of the ice
06:22in particular the low slide
06:23the goaltender has to get to position quickly
06:26she does that
06:26she's set she challenges and she makes a save
06:34and tries to make a diagonal pass to thompson
06:41tried to get 2-2 with it and loses possession
06:44we all know she's really good in tight spaces james
06:48she thought she had a little more time and space than she actually had
06:50sometimes keeping it simple is more effective
06:52we got a whistle as the puck's frozen
06:59well past the midway mark of this period
07:02minnesota's got some breathing room as they lead it to nothing
07:06puck has dropped and we are back underway
07:08quick pass to podic
07:10now over to buderak
07:12oh look at this here they come
07:15they've got numbers
07:16that's some smart heads up defensive play by allen
07:22puck grab by thompson
07:25regains possession at center
07:43she's gonna score this goal on the one-timer
07:45but it's her work off the puck
07:46to fight to get to the open spot of the ice
07:49to get the puck
07:49that is the critical piece right there james
07:51it's a great play all the way around
07:53and she finishes it off
08:06Vancouver's got themselves a goal back
08:08and they're right into it once again
08:10well it only takes one to reset the light for this team
08:14and you can certainly see it as the bench erupted with that goal
08:18intercepted
08:20takes the feed
08:25take it along the wall by buderak
08:30vancouver's got the puck
08:32moves it to the middle
08:33and she also looked for a better play here
08:38vancouver's got it near the front
08:42drives along the blue line
08:44nothing to her
08:45good stop by hensley
08:47stopped on the rock around
08:49how does she run it perfectly
08:50power pushing flexibility james
08:52goaltenders have to have it
08:53and she shows her skill set right there
08:55as she's able to make that save
08:57sinks it over to miller
08:58and she blocks it
09:00well it was from such an area
09:02grade a scoring chance
09:03i don't even think she's not
09:04she's just had instincts
09:05relied on him and got in front of him
09:07i've got two words for you
09:10new game
09:11yeah it certainly is james
09:14and who's gonna come out on top
09:15by the beginning of this face-off
09:17you want to be able to get that puck
09:18in the offensive zone
09:19and find a way to continue to attack
09:23she's like a fish out of water
09:25out there james
09:25she's off balance
09:26she's out of position
09:27and as a result the puck goes in the net
09:45vancouver's beginning to look like
09:47their version of their team here
09:49after that goal
09:50well yeah you can see in their body language
09:51after that counter strike as well james
09:53you can feel the energy kind of pulsing
09:55throughout the bench
09:56and you almost knew and felt like
09:57something was coming and if you're the coach
09:58you like that because it's a response
10:00it's a response to an early goal against him
10:02as a coach that's exactly what you want to see
10:04blocked in front
10:07minnesota's got it in their own zone
10:10they've got numbers here
10:12last by the champ
10:14puck is frozen and will get a face-off
10:17jakes has incredible numbers
10:19looking at the point street that she has
10:20going for herself
10:21elevating everyone's game around her
10:24i think they're leaning on her
10:25she's infused a lot of fire within this group
10:29vancouver's going to start with the puck
10:31on their own end
10:32quick feed to vanasova
10:34here they come on the attack
10:36down the left side
10:38passes it over
10:40picked up along the boards by versenthal
10:44moves it to thompson
10:46here it is one
10:47they score
10:49a clutch goal gives them the lead
10:52well it's very timely isn't it james
10:54to give them the lead
10:55and also the confidence that they've shown
10:57these past few shifts
10:58led to that opportunity
11:00she's like a fish out of water out there james
11:03she's off balance
11:04she's out of position
11:05and as a result the puck goes in the net
11:26vancouver's got up by one here in this opening frame but there's a lot of game to go here
11:31yeah and i always feel like those next few shifts are critical because you know your opponent they're either going
11:36to respond or they're not if they don't respond and you're on your toes you push them back and you
11:40look for a second
11:41big time stop there
11:43and her eyes are always scanning and her body is following here and she has to make an instinctual save
11:48at the last second and she gets it
11:49and a great scene
11:53minnesota's got a hold of the puck
11:55good defense of africa poking away
11:58gains the zone on the left wing
12:01puck picked up by daniel

12:08now a quick pass to greco
12:09and that slides right out to center ice
12:12move it move it
12:14use the base
12:15dishes it off
12:17off the mask of the goaltender
12:19born right between the eyes
12:21today's game the shots come so much harder and faster
12:24but guess what the equipment has been much better too
12:26and she's going to take this one square off the cage
12:28but she's alright
12:29she might be a little dazed
12:30but she's fine
12:33beats it over
12:34slides it across
12:36and the traffic jam
12:37and front blocks the shot
12:40my word they've really got them
12:42hooked in a year in their own zone
12:44saving by the keeper
12:46and there's the whistle
12:48and she'll hang on
12:50and give her squad a breather
12:53getting into the later stages of this period
12:55van koober's got a 3-2 lead at this point
13:02miller's won the draw
13:03and they'll look to set up
13:06moves the puck
13:07lets it go
13:08oh what a save
13:11here's the shot
13:12oh she denies them again
13:17there's really got another heels here now
13:20here's another shot
13:21oh what a big save
13:29here's the cut the orange
13:30and called for the offside
13:34we're going to face off
13:37van koober's put a lot of pucks on net
13:39and they continue to lead late in the first
13:43inside the final minute of the first here
13:46look at them go
13:48off a stick and they can't connect
13:51van koober's got the puck in the defensive end
13:56and that's a great heads up
13:58made by panic
14:00carries it into the offensive end up the middle
14:03here's a shot
14:04and that takes guts to get in front of that one
14:08slides the puck across to nurse
14:15there's the end of period number one
14:16both teams will grab a quick breather
14:18you can grab a hot dog
14:19and we'll be back with second period action in moments
14:31and thank you for supporting minor league hockey
14:35in your community
14:36on the next one
14:54hello
16:56Welcome back.
16:57She's Pounder.
16:58I'm Sebozki.
16:58You do you.
16:59And here comes period number two.
17:01Clean sheet of ice, beckons, and here we go with period number two.
17:06Well, Cheryl, we've got 20 minutes under our belts in this one.
17:09How do you sum up the performance?
17:11Minnesota's curling in this game because they're not working hard off of the puck when they
17:14don't have it, and the coach is going to be very upset with this.
17:17You've got to find a way to have urgency without the puck, even when you're on defense.
17:22Back at the point, they set it up.
17:24That's blocked.
17:27Run it off Main Street and on the attack.
17:29And she clips up with a quick answer there.
17:34Off the wall and right to the stick.
17:36Nice play.
17:40Moves around along the hot wall.
17:42And that's intercepted by Corey.
17:45And she shakes off a check.
17:47Oh, what a dangle!
17:49Vancouver's got control of it now from their own end.
17:54Here's a race for the loose puck.
17:57Minnesota's got it from behind the net.
18:02Scooped up along the wall by Young.
18:05Here they come up along the wing.
18:08Puck is going by the bullet's under.
18:11Vancouver's looking to break out.
18:14Slides the puck over to Barb.
18:18Takes the feed at center and moves forward.
18:21Takes the shot.
18:22Scores!
18:23And she's on a leader now.
18:25That's her second of the night.
18:26Well, the puck's just following her around her.
18:28She's following it, James, because she knows where it's at.
18:30Because she's finishing it off.
18:31What a game for her.
18:34That's a really hard shot.
18:35She has a tough time controlling it.
18:37She gets a good chunk of it, but it winds up going in behind her.
18:59Vancouver's extended the lead to two.
19:00Well, James, it's exactly where you want to be.
19:02You have a two-goal cushion here, but you also know that your opponent's going to start pressing.
19:06There's a lot of game left here, and if they get within one, they'll be within striking distance.
19:11Here's a short pass to Panik.
19:14Fires it on there.
19:15She's a fantastic saving goal as she uses all of her stick to deny them.
19:20What an outstanding save, James.
19:22I mean, the tracking and the mobility that she shows here to be able to get in front of that
19:26shot right in the low slot.
19:28Beautiful save.
19:32Regains control here in the neutral zone.
19:35Oh, what a save.
19:36She wasn't having any of that as she kicks it away.
19:40James, I thought she was going to lose this puck a while ago.
19:42I mean, the coverage is right on her.
19:44She's getting jostled.
19:45She's getting shoved around.
19:46But she comes right back to that center point of gravity, foundational strength, poor balance,
19:51and, of course, the skill and execution to maintain that possession and take it to the net.
19:56Big time stop there.
19:58Great positioning by the goaltender to redirect it to the corner, getting it out of danger.
20:03Quick pass across to Merce.
20:07Vancouver's got the puck against the boards.
20:09And it's a quick pass to Rosenthal.
20:12Let's it go.
20:13And makes the save.
20:16Buckbinders letting the puck.
20:19Vancouver's got possession here in the neutral zone.
20:24Taken by Bell.
20:26Somehow knocked away by the goalie in that one.
20:29Fees it over to Heise.
20:33Great play as she dodges the poke check.
20:36Passes it over.
20:37Right on the doorstep.
20:39Pass across to Rosenthal.
20:42Quick pass to Channel.
20:45Oh, and she avoids the poke check.
20:49The Frost have taken possession along the wall.
20:55Vancouver's looking to break out at the road end.
20:59Passes it to Boreen.
21:01Quick feed to Beresova.
21:03And that's intercepted by the punch finder.
21:06We got a penalty coming up here.
21:11Thompson's got it against the boards.
21:14Big time save as she gives that one on McCatlin.
21:18Wessel Glow stopping the play.
21:21Penisola's been given two minutes for cross-checking.
21:24She's an aggressive player, and you can be physical as well.
21:26But the moment you extend the arms and you hit someone,
21:29you're going to get that cross-checking call all day long.
21:37The first penalty kill of the night for this team,
21:39and they won't let that knock their confidence.
21:41We know their penalty kill unit is ranked
21:43toward the bottom of the league.
21:45It's something they've been actively working on to improve.
21:47So let's see if any of their improvements show up.
21:50There's the whistle as the goalie hangs on.
21:56Miller's ready for the draw as they continue to be shorthanded here.
22:05The frozen biscuits dropped, and we are back on the way here.
22:09Across the line and on the attack.
22:13Slides it over to Kroos.
22:15Karn lets Schenzer down to the ice and frees the puck.
22:19Intercepting the pass.
22:21Angles it over to Miller.
22:23And that's stolen by Heise.
22:25Here's a chance to the mirror.
22:27And that's gobbled off and will get a whistle for a face-off.
22:35Heise's ready for the draw on this man advantage.
22:43And they win the offensive zone face-off.
22:46Now let's see if they can capitalize.
22:50Vancouver's got the puck shorthanded.
22:51And a puck right up.
22:53And here they put it in.
22:56And a puck to Puddy.
23:02Here's a hit on the plane.
23:09Looking to break out, Hugh, on the power plane.
23:11She's been buzzing all night long, and you know with two goals, she's looking for the hottie now.
23:16Moves it to Jakes.
23:23Routine glove stop by Hinsley.
23:26Full tender hangs on for the whistle.
23:33Still some precious time left on this power play as they get set to drop the puck.
23:41Panic, run the face-off.
23:44Minnesota's got it in their own zone.
23:47Panic, panic!
23:49Working the puck deep inside their own end.
23:51Works it across to Buckbinder.
23:53And now it's over to Panic.
23:56And the puck skips away after that move.
23:58Well, you knew exactly what she was trying to do there, James, with that deep.
24:02Unfortunately, sometimes simple works better as that puck just skips off her stick and she loses it.
24:08And a great scene!
24:10Consider the win for the penalty killers as the power play fails to execute.
24:15Left power play wasn't very good, James.
24:17It's really slow and methodical.
24:19An easy read for the PK unit.
24:21You've got to fight to find something in the middle ice and get some shots on that.
24:26The Winkle's looking for the hat-trick, James.
24:29She's got two in the game.
24:30She wants that puck on her stick.
24:31She's got it.
24:32Look for the third.
24:34Minnesota's in now.
24:39Vancouver's got it behind the net.
24:42From the point, they take control of it.
24:44And the lane's caught up blocking that.
24:47Hook it up with the stick in the defensive end.
24:53Redirected in front.
24:55Ref blows the whistle as the puck's covered up.
25:00Going to love how both of these teams are playing so fast right now.
25:04I mean, the quick counters and the transitions are creating a lot of speed which are generating scoring chances at
25:09both ends.
25:21Vancouver's coaches were preaching lots of shots on net and they have done it and lead as a result here
25:26in the second.
25:28Petrie's won the face-off and she'll put her team on the attack.
25:33Absolutely furious as she lays down to block that one.
25:36Turns it to the wrist side.
25:38What an incredible sequence of saves there.
25:41Tracking the puck, finding it and making the save.
25:43I don't think the coach is going to be very happy though.
25:45That's way too much work in one moment.
25:48Corey's going off for cross-checking.
25:50She thinks she's making a good play.
25:53If she keeps her arms in tight, it's not bad.
25:55But the moment she extends, she gets the penalty.
25:57Cross-checking.
26:06Vancouver's man advantage unit will take to the ice for the first time tonight.
26:09Well, first power play of the game, James.
26:12You want to start with possession and look to get shots to the net.
26:14It is the tone setter.
26:16Dishes it off.
26:17Moves it quickly over to cars.
26:20And look at that save as she gets the trap of a gobbled up with her chest.
26:28Rosenthal set the face-off.
26:30Dodd ready to win this draw on the man advantage.
26:38Minnesota's won the defensive zone draw.
26:41Poins moving it ahead.
26:44Sent into the offensive zone.
26:46Vancouver's got possession of the puck.
26:52Minnesota's got possession here in the offensive zone.
26:56Stucked by the goaltender.
26:58Rashmire's been solid in the crease tonight.
27:00She's really found a way to make the key save and the timely one as well.
27:03But the high volume of them, they're going to have to shore that up.
27:05They don't want to give up so many opportunities on the defensive side of the puck.
27:09Yeah, they have a lead.
27:10But if they want to keep it, they're going to have to make sure they take care of their own
27:13zone.
27:14Let's have a look at this last save, James.
27:15And she is absolutely incredible.
27:17So dialed in.
27:18And she just finds the puck.
27:20This is intrinsic motivation.
27:21The type of motivation that says get to that puck at all costs and make that save.
27:27Rosenthal's looking to win this draw on this man advantage here.
27:31Vancouver's got the win off that draw.
27:35Slides the puck over.
27:39And now it's grabbed by Rosenthal.
27:42Here's a short pass to Bard.
27:48Let's it go.
27:50Borser save.
27:52Grabbed along the board by Manasova.
27:56Takes the pass.
27:58Hands us in on the blue line.
28:00And she catches that one with the gun.
28:03Goaltender covers up and will get a face-off.
28:09Petrie's ready for the draws.
28:10They will continue to try to kill off this penalty.
28:17And off the draw, they win possession.
28:20Here's an opportunity to get the puck out of their own end.
28:31And they get the puck out of harm's way.
28:36Vancouver's got a hold of the puck now.
28:41Looking for space inside the D zone.
28:46Sends a pass over.
28:48Slides it across.
28:49Passes it over.
28:50With the stop.
28:53And the power play unit comes up empty on that one.
28:56Nothing like a strong pique to just elevate the team right from the bottom to the top of the roster.
29:03So it's hard work.
29:04And they certainly show why they're on that unit.
29:09Kroos looking to make something happen here in the corner.
29:13Here's a chance.
29:14And that shot goes nowhere as the lane was filled.
29:18Takes it to the net.
29:20And cuts off the club and she keeps it out.
29:26Hensley's last save was incredible, James.
29:28I mean, she makes a high grade A save there.
29:31And she is absolutely pivotal in her team's foundation right now.
29:35Making that save absolutely electric in the crease.
29:44Just here in the late stages of this frame.
29:47Vancouver's doubled up on them.
29:49It's now 4-2.
29:54Now you win the faceoff here in the road and a deep possession.
29:58Slides it diagonally to Kroos.
30:00And she's knocked off the puck there.
30:04Beautiful read in the defensive end by Heise.
30:07Sometimes when you overcomplicate the game, you create turnovers for yourself.
30:11And that's something that you've got to try and eliminate.
30:13And you also have to know the time of the game.
30:15And if you're up or behind and you're leading, you can't make that play.
30:19Big save by the goaltender once again.
30:22She is such a competitive goaltender.
30:24I mean, she's focused.
30:25She's dialed in.
30:26And maybe she quit.
30:30Quick pass to Heise.
30:32Turned aside with a glove by Meshmeyer.
30:34And we get a whistle as the goaltender decides to hang on to this one.
30:40Vancouver's coaching staff must be impressed with what they're seeing from their players tonight.
30:44Lots of pucks on net.
30:45And they continue to lead late in the second.
30:50And they win the draw in their own end.
30:53Rosenthal's got it in the defensive end.
30:59Marine's got it in the offensive zone.
31:02Quick feed to Buggs.
31:04Too many bodies in the way.
31:08Minnesota's on the attack.
31:13Picked up along the wall by Bruderak.
31:16Diving block on the play.
31:19Through the middle of the ice and literally the attacking zone.
31:22The Frost have taken possession of their own end.
31:36Officials getting ready to drop the puck.
31:38Puck possession is so key in today's game.
31:44Vancouver's got it in the offensive zone.
31:47Center bears down on that bottom hand.
31:49A clean win.
31:49And you can see them all setting up.
31:51Looking to attack the net against this entire group.
31:54And a strong effort on that play.
31:56Hensley's able to handle that puck with ease.
31:59Makes the initial save.
32:00And there's no second shot.
32:01Hensley's moving off.
32:02Save before the end of this one.
32:06There's the buzzer.
32:07Two periods down.
32:08One more to go.
32:09They always say three is the magic number.
32:12And we've got period number three next.
32:14You want the insurance and willing to leave out the tickets of all of the games.
32:18The first off season ticket is guaranteed yours for the upcoming format.
32:23Call the box office before you're in the season or check out our website.
32:30The second off season ticket is guaranteed not to leave out the tickets of the game.
32:41The間icature.
32:41There's no magic number four.
32:41They're still waiting for clearance.
32:42The second off season ticket is to sell it.
32:45Think about it, right?
32:46The third off season ticket.
38:37Vancouver's regained possession of the puck.
39:09From the point, looks to make something happen.
39:11He'll be right back.
39:40And they take possession of the puck.
39:55He'll be right back.
40:12Take shot.
40:14And she blocks it.
40:15And she blocks it.
40:50And they'll start with the puck.
41:03And they'll start with possession.
41:06And they'll start with possession.
41:13Minnesota's got the puck.
41:14Minnesota's got the puck.
41:14Minnesota's got the puck in the defensive end.
41:16Minnesota's got the puck at the defensive end.
41:16And says it just out of reach.
41:17I love it.
41:18Mike, Harper's got the puck.
41:22Murphy's got the puck.
41:30He's got the puck.
41:37Puck grab by Merzenthal.
41:42Dishes it off.
41:45And that's intercepted by Pearl.
41:48Minnesota's been working hard all night, James.
41:51It's intercepting parts in a great stick position,
41:53and it's been a defensive clinic.
41:55They've got a fine hook to get to the other side of the puck
41:58and generate some offense.
42:00Vancouver's got control of the puck.
42:04The front position along the boards.
42:07Puck picked up by Beneshova.
42:10Fantastic save!
42:11That way to say, both of us have something special about it,
42:14and you have to want to be in that position
42:16to stand in front of a shot like this.
42:18She does it, and she makes the save.
42:21Picking up momentum across the zone here on the right side.
42:25Vancouver's top line has been just that tonight.
42:27They've contributed offensively,
42:29and there's a reason they're in the lead.
42:35More than half the period has expired.
42:38It's 4-2.
42:42Minnesota's won the faceoff deep in their own end.
42:45The Frost have control of the puck.
42:48Vancouver's got possession here in the neutral zone.
42:52Sheik setting up against the wall.
42:55Picked up along the boards by Nurse.
42:58Picked it over!
43:01Slides it across!
43:03Mouset to Nurse.
43:05Great side by the goaltender on that one.
43:12Big opportunity here with this faceoff.
43:15Yeah, and I'm not sure how much more the goaltender can take
43:17as she's with a ton of pressure right now.
43:19Now they've got to get net front, and they've got to get Pucks to net.
43:24Unable to reach that one.
43:26Over!
43:26Over!
43:27Moved up ahead after a nice pass from the right wing.
43:31There's a chance!
43:33There's a save!
43:35Maschmeyer's making saves and finding ways to put the puck to the corner
43:38and just cleaning up the trash and making sure there's no second shots.
43:42Tries to get it over to Ponick.
43:45Right up the gut into the attacking zone.
43:48Nice stop by Maschmeyer.
43:51Wheel! Wheel!
43:54She makes a nice lead pass here.
43:57Vancouver's through center right now in the offensive end.
44:01Taken by Gardner.
44:04To him is a pass.
44:06Big time stop there.
44:09Minnesota's looking to break out.
44:14And now it's grabbed by Williams.
44:16Oh, she keeps that one over the net.
44:19Passes the puck over to Gardner.
44:22Vancouver's got it against the boys.
44:26Moves it quickly over to Kava.
44:29Along the half wall with the puck.
44:32She takes the feed.
44:36Cut pass across to Kava.
44:41The frost of the puck in the defensive zone.
44:45Vancouver's got a hold of the puck now.
44:48Looking to make something happen along the boards.
44:51Here's a short pass to Heise.
44:53Looks to make a play over Tee Young.
44:58Puts it on the net.
44:59Too much congestion in front.
45:02Angles it over to Gardner.
45:03Over, over.
45:04Takes the feed.
45:06Looking to make something happen in the offensive zone.
45:09Puck scooped up by Miller.
45:11Right here.
45:11Quick shot.
45:13And she turns that one aside.
45:16Along the wing of the neutral zone.
45:19And she shakes off the check with a great play there.
45:24Takes the feed moving in.
45:26Point, point.
45:27Here's a chance in the woods.
45:29And that's intercepted.
45:32Heise's lugging the puck.
45:34Gaining momentum in the offensive end.
45:37Big play inside the defensive zone.
45:39And a turnover in the neutral zone.
45:43Can't connect on the shot.
45:47Takes the puck at the point.
45:49And she just gets a piece of it.
45:51We'll continue play here.
45:52Now in your last line of defense,
45:54you gotta do anything and everything
45:55to keep the puck out of your net.
45:57And that's exactly what she does.
45:58As the shooter has point-plank range.
46:00And she makes a save.
46:01Point, point.
46:03Slides that one right across the blue line.
46:08Penalty coming up.
46:10And she's knocked down to the ice
46:11and loses the puck.
46:13There's the whistle.
46:14And here's the call.
46:16Rosenthal's going off for interference.
46:19She gets in the way of her opponent
46:21just enough and long enough
46:23that she's gonna get the interference call here.
46:32They've got the extra attacker out here
46:34for the face-off.
46:35Well, they'll be looking for a quick win
46:36and advance that puck right to the net.
46:41Play yourself as they win the draw
46:43here inside the offensive zone.
46:45Denies that opportunity.
46:47Another stop by the goaltender.
46:50And she brings new meaning there
46:51to holding down the forward.
46:53I mean, she is locked in, dialed in,
46:54and doing whatever she can
46:55to keep the puck out of the net.
46:56And they get that puck down the ice.
46:59Quick pass to Brewer.
47:01With possession along the wall.
47:04Shot.
47:04And she makes the save.
47:06And a great save.
47:09Respeas the pass.
47:11Off the inside.
47:12And the posting stays out
47:13a game of inches.
47:15And the goalie covers up for the whistle.
47:21Special teams set to resume
47:23the offensive end.
47:24Critical juncture in the game.
47:25Not just a power play, James.
47:26But you're up against
47:27a fatigued goaltender.
47:28You've got to take advantage.
47:31Minnesota's won the draw.
47:32Now let's see what they can do with it.
47:33He's scored!
47:35He's on power play.
47:37Well, especially teams
47:38are often the difference maker.
47:39It's why you spend so much time
47:40in practice working on them, James.
47:42And they took advantage
47:43of that opportunity.
47:45With the extra attacker,
47:47with the goalie pull,
47:47they have the coverage running.
47:49And they certainly find the opportunity
47:51to get it to the middle of the ice.
47:53And, man, do they bury it.
47:59Officials getting ready
48:00to drop the puck
48:01to get play back underway.
48:07They stop here in the neutral zone
48:08and we are back underway.
48:12Quickshot!
48:13Turns it aside!
48:15The sense of urgency
48:16has really set in.
48:17They pull the goalie.
48:18The extra attacker's out.
48:20Quick feed to Coyne.
48:23Shot!
48:24Makes the stop
48:25with the blocker!
48:26Well, she's the last line
48:27of defense here.
48:28I'm not sure where her D are, James,
48:30but she turns aside
48:31a real dangerous opportunity.
48:36They've got the extra attacker
48:37out there.
48:38And, Cheryl,
48:38we know what this means.
48:39Well, you have to get possession
48:40with that extra player
48:41on the ice.
48:42They'll have to win that draw
48:43and convert
48:43on their opportunity.
48:45A chance!
48:46Oh, she came up
48:47clutch just in time!
48:49Final horn sounds
48:50and we are all done
48:52with this one.
48:54Nice victory tonight.
48:55A lot of tic-tac-toe
48:56with the puck movement
48:57out there
48:57delivering that victory.
48:59Yeah, and this is a close one,
49:00but they're going to wind up
49:01victorious in it.
49:02And it's the modern-day
49:03game, right?
49:03Possess, possess, possess.
49:05But it's how you possess
49:06the puck that really matters.
49:07And what I liked
49:08about their approach
49:09was they held it
49:10on the outside,
49:10but they attacked the middle
49:11at the opportune time.
49:13That'll do it
49:14for tonight's EA Sports broadcast.
49:16Hey, look,
49:17plenty of action
49:17just around the corner
