At the Tsongas Center, Game 1 of the PWHL playoffs saw the Ottawa Charge take a 1-0 lead when defenseman Jocelyne Larocque tipped home a power play shot assisted by Rory Guilday and Rebecca Leslie. Boston defenseman Rylind MacKinnon was assessed a five-minute major and a game misconduct for an illegal hit to the head on Ottawa forward Gabbie Hughes, WHO remained on the bench after the play. NESN carried the television broadcast with Kenzie Lalonde and Cheryl Pounder calling the action, and the PWHL streamed the game for free on YouTube. The early power play goal and the major penalty established a physical, high-stakes tone and gave Ottawa momentum as the series begins.
