How to Watch: Dec 29 - 30

Three NWHL games are on tap this weekend

NWHL

Sat. Dec. 29

Minnesota Whitecaps at Buffalo Beauts at KeyBank Center at 2 p.m. eastern - Twitter Game of the Week

The NWHL comes back with a big game in a big rink. The Beauts, fresh off a coaching change, look to avenge a sweep in Minnesota at the end of October, whereas the Whitecaps look to bounce back after being swept by the Pride at the beginning of December. Four points seperate them in standings, so a Beauts weekend sweep would make a three-way point tie for first place.

Sun. Dec. 30

Minnesota Whitecaps at Buffalo Beauts at HarborCenter at 1:30 p.m. eastern - YouTube

Boston Pride at Connecticut Whale at 3 p.m. eastern - YouTube

The Whale are better than their 2-5 record show. They got a tough draw to start the season with three straight games against the Beauts. The Pride will be a rough game for them, as Boston’s looked the best they possibly ever have. The Pack is coming off a sweep of the Whitecaps and solid win over the Riveters.
