Boston Fleet Notes:

The Boston Fleet are sitting at fifth in the league, only 3 points behind New York. A regulation win Tonight would put them in a tie for fourth place. They are still winless as the away team this season. They are missing out on important points during their month-plus road trip. They do not return home until January 22nd and desperately need points at this point in the season. This season, Megan Keller and Hannah Bilka have been great pieces for the fleet. Megan Keller has 2 goals and 6 assists. Boston’s rookie Bilka has 2 goals and 4 assists this season.

Minnesota Frost Notes:

The Minnesota Frost are sitting in second place, tied in points with Montreal. Any result except a regulation loss would make them the first team in the league again. Claire Thompson was picked in the first round of the draft and has been a great piece for Minnesota. This season, she has 1 goal and 9 assists.
