Turnbull scores twice as Toronto cruises past Minnesota 4-0 in first-ever PWHL playoff game

Associated Press  

TORONTO — Blayre Turnbull scored two goals to lead Toronto to a 4-0 win over Minnesota in the first-ever Professional Women’s Hockey League playoff game on Wednesday night. Natalie Spooner, with the opening goal and one assist, and Emma Maltais also scored for top-seeded Toronto in front of 8,473 fans at Coca-Cola Coliseum, the home of the American Hockey League’s Toronto Marlies. The hosts entered Wednesday winners of four straight to close the regular season, including a 4-1 win over Minnesota last Wednesday. The PWHL scoring champion took a pass from Hannah Miller and fired a wrister that went top corner past Hensley’s glove.
