NEWARK, NJ (November 29, 2025) – The New York Sirens skated to a dominant 5-1 victory against the Vancouver Goldeneyes in their home opener at Prudential Center on Saturday afternoon. Goaltender Kayle Osborne made 20 saves to earn her second win of the season, while four Sirens rookies found the scoresheet.
Rookie defender Nicole Vallario opened the scoring less than five minutes into the first period, intercepting a clearing attempt by the Goldeneyes and sending a shot to the top corner to make it 1-0. Late in the frame, Sarah Fillier scored her first goal of the season to double New York’s lead, with rookies Anne Cherkowski — who finished the game with two assists — and Casey O’Brien earning their first career helpers on the play.
Paetyn Levis extended New York’s lead just 55 seconds into the second period, and midway through the frame, Kristin O’Neill notched her first tally of the season, a shorthanded ‘jailbreak’ goal on a breakaway, to push the advantage to 4-0. Sophie Jaques cut the lead to 4-1 5:23 into the third, but 2025 first overall pick Kristýna Kaltounková responded midway through the final period, scoring her first career PWHL goal, and point, to make it 5-1 and continue the rookie scoring surge.
Vancouver netminder Kristen Campbell made her first start of the season, stopping 23 shots, as the Goldeneyes dropped their second straight road contest.
