5 different scorers give Sirens 5-1 win over Goldeneyes in home opener
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) --- Five different players scored for New York, including top
overall draft pick Kristyna Kaltounkova, Kayle Osborne made 20 saves and the
Sirens won their home opener 5-1 over the expansion Vancouver Goldeneyes on
Saturday.
New York (2-0-0-1) jumped on top early with a goal by rookie Nicole Vallario
barely four minutes in and added a goal late in the first period on a
tic-tack-toe play with Sarah Fillier tapping at the back post.
Paetyn Levis made it 3-0 less than a minute into the second period with another
goal from the edge of the crease and midway through Kristin O'Neill scored on a
shorthanded breakaway.
Sophie Jaques got the Goldeneyes (0-1-0-2), who lost 5-1 at Ottawa in their
last outing, on the board early in the third period but 3 1/2 minutes later
Kaltounkova answered from close range.
All six goals were season firsts. Anne Cherowski, New York's second round draft
pick, had a pair of assists.
Up next Vancouver plays at Boston on Wednesday. New York plays at Seattle on Wednesday. ___ AP women's hockey: https://apnews.com/hub/womens-hockey |
