<p>In the last weekend of Toronto&#8217;s CWHL regular season, the Furies are looking to fight for as many extra points as possible, hoping to put them up and over 3rd-placed Brampton in the standings. Unfortunately, today&#8217;s game didn&#8217;t quite go as well as the Furies had planned.</p>
<p></p>

</ul>
<h2>BLUE WARRIOR</h2>
</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s Blue Warrior is goaltender, Christina Kessler. Kessler played like an absolute beast in goal today for the Furies. She made 27 of 28 saves against les Canadiennes, including denying Caroline Ouellette her 131st career goal. Kessler earned herself the second star of the game with her performance today and deserved every bit of it.</p>

<h2>SHOUTOUT</h2>
</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s shoutout goes to Charline Labonte. Today&#8217;s game was very much a goaltending battle, and with all the scrappiness in front of their nets, it was all on the goaltenders to succeed. Charline Labonte came out on top today. </p>
