The Toronto Sceptres made a stunning comeback at a sold-out Agganis Arena, scoring four goals in the third period to defeat the Boston Fleet and end their nine-game point streak. Daryl Watts led Toronto with two goals, including the game-winner by Renata Fast. Hilary Knight scored both goals for Boston, with Alina Müller and Susanna Tapani assisting. After falling behind 1-0, Toronto tied the game with Watts’ goal and took the lead with another from Hayley Scamurra. Fast extended Toronto’s lead, but Knight cut it to 3-2 with seven minutes remaining. However, Watts sealed the 4-2 victory with a power-play goal. Toronto goalie Kristen Campbell made 28 saves, while Boston’s Aerin Frankel made 23 saves in the loss. Boston will play their final PWHL Takeover Tour game against the Ottawa Charge on Saturday at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis. Knight emphasized the need to minimize mistakes moving forward. The win was a significant comeback for Toronto and a disappointing loss for Boston, whose last regulation defeat also came against Toronto. The game displayed the unpredictability of the league and the importance of staying focused on every shift. Toronto’s strong performance showcased their resilience and ability to capitalize on opportunities.
