While their top line played much better than they had in the first game, it was once again their depth players who did most of the damage in the win. None did more damage than Alex Newhook, who potted a pair of huge goals to build their lead.

PWHL: Morin scores twice as Frost force deciding Game 5 -
Facing elimination in Game 4 of the PWHL semifinals, the Minnesota Frost scored three goals in the final 12 minutes to defeat the Montreal Victoire 3-1, extending the series to a winner-take-all Game 5 on Monday night in Montreal. With the victory, Minnesota improved to 5-0 in elimination games in franchise playoff history; the Frost also improved to 4-1 all-time in Game 4 playoff contests. They have won both Games 5 they have played, both in 2024. For much of the evening, the two teams were locked in another defensive battle. Montreal finally broke through 1:13 into the third period when Hayley Scamurra’s wraparound attempt created a rebound that Maureen Murphy buried for her first goal of the postseason. But the Frost, who have repeatedly shown their resilience under pressure, responded with the urgency of the two-time defending champion. Defender Sidney Morin scored twice in a span of less than four minutes, continuing what has become one
