PWHL Minnesota is on the cusp of securing a playoff spot with just one point needed. In their final home game of the regular season, they face off against Boston, who is also vying for a playoff berth. Minnesota holds a slight edge in the standings and can clinch a spot with a regulation win, overtime or shootout victory, or an overtime or shootout loss. Despite two previous chances to seal their playoff fate, losses at Montreal and Ottawa have kept Minnesota waiting. With three games remaining and a three-point deficit behind co-leaders Toronto and Montreal, the team still has a shot at securing home-ice advantage for the four-team playoffs.
