PWHL Boston becomes 1st team to reach Walter Cup final after completing sweep over Montreal

Susanna Tapani scored her second overtime winner of the series to help Boston rally past Montreal 3-2 on Tuesday night and advance to the Professional Women's Hockey League championship series.

Boston has won five consecutive games, while Montreal ended the season on a four-game losing streak.

Tapani's game-winning goal came just 62 seconds into the extra period. Alina Muller cut back to the middle of the ice for a shot that bounced off the pad of Ann-Renee Desbiens and Tapani was left open at the back door for an easy tap in.
