The London Devilettes struck first, but it was all Mississauga from there as the Hurricanes unleashed a relentless offensive attack to secure a decisive 5-1 victory on home ice. London's Katherine Cameron, assisted by Grace Gow and Avery Thomsen, opened the scoring midway through the first period, capitalizing on early momentum. The Hurricanes, however, weathered a pair of first-period penalties and found their footing. The game turned in the second period when Marissa Gloyns on the power play, with helpers from Olivia Aquino and Sarah Staley, tied the game. Just minutes later, Chloe Zunn, set up by Sophia Fabro, gave Mississauga a lead they would never relinquish, sending the Hurricanes into the final frame with confidence.
The third period was a masterclass in special teams and depth scoring for Mississauga. Just 86 seconds in, Taia MacDonald, assisted by Staley and kate pasma, extended the lead to 3-1. The Hurricanes then delivered a crushing blow while shorthanded, as pasma converted a feed from MacDonald and Tiani Makokis to make it 4-1. Mississauga's power play struck again later in the period, with Sarah Staley finishing off a play from Kika Ho and sophia block to seal the dominant 5-1 win. The Hurricanes' offensive pressure was immense, outshooting London 38-21 over the course of the game, with a particularly dominant 30-12 advantage over the final two periods.
While the goalie stats were not officially tracked, the score and shot totals tell the story of a commanding performance by the Hurricanes' netminder, who turned away 20 of 21 shots after the early goal. London's penalty trouble proved costly, with Mississauga scoring twice on the man advantage and adding a critical shorthanded marker. Standout performances for the Hurricanes included multi-point nights from Sarah Staley, kate pasma, and Taia MacDonald, whose playmaking was central to the offensive explosion. The win showcased Mississauga's resilience and potent attack, as they systematically dismantled London's defense to claim a convincing two points.
