VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) --- Defenseman Sophie Jaques scored at 1:24 of
overtime to give the expansion Vancouver Goldeneyes a 4-3 victory over the

Jaques took a pass from Hannah Miller and fired a shot over goalie Marlene
Boissonnault's shoulder for her ninth goal of the season.
Jenn Gardiner had goal and two assists for Vancouver. Sarah Nurse and Miller
also scored, and Emerance Maschmeyer stopped 28 shots. The Goldeneyes closed
with four straight victories to finish seventh in the eighth-team PWHL at

Kelly Pannek and Klara Hymlarova scored third-period goals for the Frost to
force overtime. Kendall Coyne Schofield also scored for Minnesota in its fourth
loss in a row. The two-time defending champion Frost finished third at 13-354-9.
Minnesota will open the best-of-five semifinal series Thursday in Boston or
Saturday in Montreal.
