Frost: Minnesota (4-3-2-3) is on its way home from a difficult stretch on the road. Since topping Montreal in front of a record 14,000 fans in Denver, the squad has hit a rough patch. Last week, the Frost suffered a shootout loss to the New York Sirens before being handed their first regulation road loss of the season by the league-topping Montreal Victoire. The Frost have now slid into second place in the PWHL behind them. Since their last home game, defender Sophie Jaques has returned from long-term injury reserve, where she had been since mid-December because of an upper-body injury.

Ottawa Charge: Ottawa (4-0-2-5) is also hoping for a stop to its own skid. The Charge have lost their past three games and sit in the middle of the PWHL standings. This is only their second meeting with the Frost this season, with Minnesota handily winning their last matchup 5-2.
