Jessie Eldridge scored two goals to go with an assist, Alina Müller had two assists and a goal, and the Boston Fleet beat the Minnesota Frost 3-2 on Wednesday night. Boston (15-5-2-5) moved within one point of first-place Montreal (58), with the two teams set to face each other on Friday. Boston opened the scoring just 4:55 into the game.

Jessie Eldridge and Alina Müller put on a clinic Wednesday night, connecting for three crucial points to power the Boston Fleet to a 3-2 victory over the Minnesota Frost. Eldridge netted two goals, including a power-play marker, while Müller tallied a goal and two assists in a dominant offensive display.

The Fleet struck early, setting the tone just 4:55 into the first period. Alina Müller showcased her elite skating, carrying the puck the length of the ice before dishing to a wide-open Jessie Eldridge for a slick one-timer past goaltender Nicole Hensley.

Eldridge wasn't done, adding her second of the night—and 12th of the season—on the power play in the second period. This marks her second two-goal performance in just three games, highlighting her red-hot form. After Minnesota cut the lead early in the third, Müller responded swiftly, burying her fourth goal of the year to restore a two-goal cushion and reach a career-high 21 points.

With this win, Boston (15-5-2-5) continues its strong push, climbing to within a single point of the first-place Montreal team in the PWHL standings. The two top contenders are set for a massive showdown this Friday, making every point critical. The Fleet have found a winning formula against Minnesota this season, now taking three of their four matchups.

While the Frost, sitting third with 49 points, got third-period goals from Kendall Cooper and Britta Curl-Salemme to make it close, Boston's home-ice advantage held strong. The Fleet remain undefeated in six games at the Tsongas Center this season, proving to be a formidable force on their own turf as the playoff race heats up.
