In the first period, the Wolves started the pressure early on the Saints but was turned aside by goalie Tracey Taylor. The Saints would eventually get on the board first with Brandy Edwards first goal of the season. She would extend the lead to 2 – 0 four minutes later at 10:17. The Wolves would finally get on the board one minute later to cut the lead in half on Saverio Romano's first goal of the season.

In the second period, the Wolves continued to have tons of chances but were unable to capitalize. Brandy Edwards would score the only goal of the for the Saints, assisted by Don Deschamps at 14:44 to take a 3 – 1 lead going into the third.

In the third, the Saints would dominate outscoring the Wolves 4 – 1 with Brandy Edwards fourth and fifth goals of the game. Don Deschamps would add his first two goals of the season with one assist, and one assist from Rayyan Rashid.
