Ottawa Charge vs. Minnesota Frost: Walk-in styles turn heads before Game 2 of PWHL Finals 

While it's evident that the players of the PWHL dazzle on the ice, they also make a splash on the catwalk. The PWHL Finals are underway, with the reigning champion Minnesota Frost taking on the Ottawa Charge. The players of both teams made fashionable entrances into TD Place in Ottawa ahead of Game 2 on Thursday.

Both the Frost and the Charge posted photos on Instagram of the fashionable walk-in outfits the players donned before suiting up for the big game.

Ottawa goaltender Emerance Maschmeyer, her baby, Beckham, and forward Emily Clark partook in a group photo. Maschmeyer graced the locker room entrance in a sophisticated button-up blouse, while baby Beckham carried some swag of his own in a striped sweatshirt and comfy booties.

Clark donned a deep blue sweater that matched straight-legged beige pants. She also hoisted the perfect complement to any outfit: An iced coffee. An Olympic gold medalist with Canada, Clark’s four points (two goals, two assists) pace all Charge players in the postseason.

The walk-in outfits and the game did not disappoint. The Frost took home Game 2 after defeating the Charge 2-1 in overtime. Minnesota’s Britta Curl-Salemme scored the game-tying goal with less than a minute left in regulation and then secured the victory with the overtime-winner to tie the championship series at 1-1.

The puck drops for Game 3 on Saturday.
