EDMONTON, Alta. – For the sixth time this season, the Griffins were shut out, falling 1-0 in overtime to the visiting Saskatchewan Huskies after Jayde Cadieux scored with 35 seconds left in the extra session for the game's only goal at the Downtown Community Arena.

The saving grace is the Griffins (2-10-3) picked up a point for losing in OT – which not only keeps them ahead of the Huskies (1-10-4), it's the first point MacEwan has garnered against Saskatchewan in Canada West women's hockey play since the Griffins joined the conference in 2021.

The Griffins had a number of narrow misses in the game – tips that just went wide, rebounds that barely missed a MacEwan stick – but they couldn't find a way to beat Saskatchewan goaltender Colby Wilson, who made 27 saves for her first shutout of the season and fourth of her career.

The Huskies poured on some pressure late in the game, in particular, but Sank made a highlight-reel stop with 25 seconds left to net MacEwan a point, sliding across to rob Ashlee Wolfe on a rebound.

In overtime, the Griffins carried more of the play, but couldn't find a way to break down the Huskies defence. With two of their three players unable to change after a long shift, the Huskies took advantage as Cadieux walked around a Griffins defenceman and deked Sank wide for the game-winner.

The teams will meet again on Saturday at the Downtown Community Arena with puck drop set for 6:00 PM CST. Catch the action live on CanadaWest.tv, presented by BioSteel.
