The game was just over three minutes old Tuesday night at Xcel Energy Center when an uncharacteristic defensive breakdown by the Minnesota Frost led to an Ottawa goal and a 1-0 lead for the Charge. Little did the Frost know that the mistake would prove to be the difference in the game,

Charge goalie Gwyneth Philips saved all 22 of Minnesota’s shots on goal, and Brianne Jenner’s first-period goal was enough to end Ottawa’s three-game skid.

The Ottawa Charge got things going early in the game and were able to keep the Frost off the board the entire time to clinch the win.
