“We played really well,” said Kerans. “We skated hard and backchecked all game long to help the defence. We worked hard and played with some great chemistry. Our goaltender, Emma Goodman, was strong between the pipes. It was really important to win that first game because it’s only a best of three series and we have the momentum going into that second game.”
