The PWHL assessed Minnesota Frost forward Britta Curl-Salemme a one-game suspension for an illegal check to the head of Toronto defenseman Renata Fast in Game 1 of their semifinal playoff series.

Lee Stecklein had two goals and an assist to help the Minnesota Frost beat the Toronto Sceptres 5-3 in Game 2 of their first-round playoff series.

The Frost — who had to win the final two games of the regular season on the road just to qualify for the playoffs — lost 3-2 in Game 1 in Toronto on Wednesday. They pulled even in the best-of-five series on Friday in Toronto against the Sceptres with a 5-3 win, scoring twice in the third period.
