The Sceptres turned power play success into a win over the Frost yesterday to give them three very important points. They play the Sirens tomorrow in the Pride game at home. Another win is what they need as they are two points behind Ottawa and three in front of New York. They hold the tiebreaker over both right now.

Canada is gearing up for the U18:

I'm mostly team meteor on this matchup, but that's one hell of a playoff performance:
