The game was a back-and-forth affair, with Vancouver leading 3-2 after the first, but Minnesota tying it up 4-4 by the seconds end. Grace Zumwinkle, Katy Knoll, and Mae Batherson led the offense, while Taylor Heise tied it late in the second on the power play.

It's April 5th. This is NHL News Today, driven by AI, your team, nonstop. Minnesota Frost snagged a thrilling 6-5 win over the Vancouver Golden Eyes on April 4th, clinching their spot in the postseason. After dropping a tough overtime loss to the New York sirens earlier that week, they bounced back at home with Nicole Hensley in net. The game was a seesaw battle from the jump, with Vancouver jumping ahead 3-2 after the first period, but the Frost nodded it up 4-4 by the second's end. Grey's Zomwinkel kicked things off at the Frost's first goal, building momentum while Katie Nowe and Mae Baffeson kept them close. Taylor Hies tied it late in the second on the power play, showing her chemistry with Zomwinkel, who's heating up post-Olympic break. Kelly Pannex sealed the deal in the third, with back-to-back power play tips, giving Minnesota the edge they needed to hold on. Fans are buzzing about the offense stepping up, but the defense leaked too many soft goals that could have been stopped. Lee Steclin earned props for her strong play, driving the net and setting up chances even
if she didn't light the lamp. Still, the team knows they got a shore up that back end to go deep. With the sirens up next on April 11th, this win sets the Frost of Strong, heading into playoffs. Momentum's on their side now.
