Toronto Six blank Connecticut Whale 3-0 to advance to PHF final against Minnesota Whitecaps
The Toronto Six, who were one overtime goal away on Saturday from elimination in the Premier Hockey Federation playoffs, are heading to Arizona this weekend to play for the Isobel Cup.
The Whale won Game 1 of the series 5-3 on Friday, and led Game 2 on Saturday 2-1 in the second period before the Six rallied with two goals, including an overtime marker by Emma Woods at 2:31 of the extra period. Whale coach Colton Orr said Chuli’s goaltending proved to be the determining factor for his crew in the do-or-die game.
“Super effort by our team, and super proud of them. They just never quit. They made my job easier tonight,” said Chuli, who admitted playing three tense games in four nights was tough.
