The Kingston Ice Wolves delivered a commanding performance at home, blanking the North York Storm 7-0 in a U22 Elite matchup. The tone was set early in a penalty-filled first period, where Kingston capitalized on their opportunities. Ashlea Whyte opened the scoring on the power play midway through the period, assisted by Ava Vrana and Kaylynn Fisher. The Ice Wolves' offense then exploded with three more goals before the intermission. Caitlyn Wimmer netted an even-strength marker, followed by a quick pair from Kaylynn Fisher—her second of the period coming on another power play with assists from Quinn McFarlane and Karinne Jarmin. The Storm struggled to generate offense, managing only 3 shots in the opening frame against Kingston's Claire Scott.
Despite a more competitive second period where North York fired 14 shots on goal, the Ice Wolves' defense and goaltending stood firm. Claire Scott was a wall in net, turning away every Storm opportunity to preserve the shutout. Kingston extended their lead when Rio Pierre found the back of the net, with Fisher and Vrana picking up the helpers. The period ended with some roughing penalties, including a double minor to Kingston's Quinn McFarlane, but the Storm could not solve the Ice Wolves' penalty kill. The final frame saw Kingston add two more for good measure, with Claire Chambers and Cora Galliah lighting the lamp, both assisted by the prolific Kaylynn Fisher who finished the night with a staggering five points (2 goals, 3 assists).
The story of the game was the complete team effort from Kingston. Kaylynn Fisher was the offensive engine, while Karinne Jarmin chipped in with three assists. Goaltender Claire Scott was perfect, stopping all 18 shots she faced for a well-earned shutout victory. For the North York Storm, it was a tough night; goaltender Veronica Mancini faced a barrage of 36 shots, and the team's discipline wavered with 10 minor penalties. The Ice Wolves' special teams were decisive, going 2-for-7 on the power play and killing off all their penalties in a display of dominance that sealed a decisive 7-0 win.
