VANCOUVER (Interstat) — Shay Maloney scored 41 seconds into overtime, and Aerin Frankel made 25 saves as the Boston Fleet beat the Vancouver Goldeneyes 2-1 in a Professional Women’s Hockey League game March 10 at Pacific Coliseum. Boston improved to 13-4, while Vancouver fell to 6-12. Maloney’s winner came after Boston held a one-goal lead for much of the third period and then saw Vancouver equalize late to force the extra period.

Frankel, a 5-foot-5 goaltender from Chappaqua, N.Y., was Boston’s top star. She stopped 25 of 26 shots, anchoring the Fleet during stretches when Vancouver pressed for the tying goal. The Goldeneyes finished with 26 shots on goal, but Frankel was sharp throughout, especially in the third period as Vancouver pushed numbers into the offensive zone. Her performance allowed Boston to survive Vancouver’s late surge and reach overtime.

Hannah Miller provided Vancouver’s most consistent offensive threat. The 5-foot-9 left wing scored the tying goal at 16:34 of the third period, finishing with a goal, seven shots and three hits. Miller’s goal came on an assist from Sarah Nurse and forced the extra period after Boston had controlled much of the middle stretch. Miller repeatedly tested Frankel and helped the Goldeneyes generate their strongest pressure of the game.

Haley Winn had given Boston the lead at 3:19 of the third period. The 5-foot-6 defender scored with assists from Susanna Tapani and Jamie Lee Rattray, finishing with a goal, six shots and one hit. Tapani added an assist, two shots and one hit, while Rattray recorded an assist, four shots and four hits. Winn’s goal ended a scoreless first period and a second period in which both teams traded penalties without converting.

Sarah Nurse finished with an assist, two shots and seven hits for Vancouver. Shay Maloney scored the overtime winner, her only shot of the game, and added five hits. Sophie Jaques had seven shots and two hits from the Vancouver blue line. Alina Müller contributed three shots, four hits and a two-minute delay-of-game penalty for Boston. Megan Keller added two shots and three hits for the Fleet. Boston’s ability to answer after Vancouver tied the game proved decisive.

Penalties shaped the middle of the contest. Vancouver’s Mannon McMahon was called for interference at 4:42 of the second period and cross-checking at 7:44 of the second. Boston’s Jill Saulnier received a slashing minor at 14:09 of the first period and a tripping minor at 12:28 of the third. Vancouver’s Tereza Vanišová was assessed a roughing minor at 14:09 of the first, and Boston’s Alina Müller was called for delay of game at 14:33 of the second. Boston’s penalty kill held firm during the second period, and Vancouver could not convert with the extra skater.

Boston’s victory continued a strong recent run. The Fleet have now won six consecutive games, building momentum as the Professional Women’s Hockey League schedule moves deeper into the season. Boston has leaned on balanced scoring and reliable goaltending during the streak, and both elements were on display against Vancouver. The Fleet’s defense limited second-chance opportunities in overtime, clearing space for Maloney’s quick winner.

Vancouver, meanwhile, dropped its third straight game and fell to 6-12. The Goldeneyes showed resilience by tying the game in the third period, but they could not complete the comeback. Miller and Nurse generated repeated chances, and Jaques was active from the point, yet Vancouver managed only one goal against Frankel. The loss left the Goldeneyes searching for consistency as they prepare for a busy stretch of home and road games.

Interstat’s ELO system had projected Boston with a 54 percent probability to win before the game.
