Segedi scores, Vancouver Goldeneyes snap skid with 5-2 win over New York Sirens

Mar 18, 2026 | 9:41 PM

VANCOUVER — Anna Segedi scored her first PWHL goal, helping the Vancouver Goldeneyes to a 5-2 win over the New York Sirens on Wednesday.

The American centre collected a pass from Michelle Karvinen and swept a shot in from the low circle 6:48 into the first period to give Vancouver a 2-0 lead.

Anna Shokina, Sophie Jacques, Tereza Vanisova and Mannon McMahon — into an empty net — also scored for the Goldeneyes (6-1-4-9). Kristen Campbell stopped 22 of the 24 shots she faced in Vancouver’s net.

Sarah Fillier and Anna Bargman each had a goal for the Sirens (8-0-3-10), who got 24 saves from Kayle Osborne.

It was a much-needed win for Vancouver, which still sits seventh in the PWHL standings, three points behind New York with 10 games to go.

The result also snapped a four-game skid for the Goldeneyes and marked their first victory since Jan. 25.

TAKEAWAYS

Goldeneyes: Were the dominant side to start, peppering Osborne with shots early and outshooting the visitors 12-5 across the first period, but struggled to handle New York’s push in the second. … Campbell started a third straight game. Goalie Emerance Maschmeyer remains day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

Sirens: Cut the deficit to 3-2 with Bargman’s goal 13:49 into the second but couldn’t rally to tie the score … Have now lost four straight road games. … Fillier continues to lead the team in scoring with five goals and 11 assists on the season.

KEY MOMENT

Vanisova broke the tension 5:27 into the third with a shot from inside the faceoff circle. Osborne got her blocker in the puck’s path but it bounced up and back, landing in the net to give the Goldeneyes a 4-2 lead. It was Vanisova’s second goal of the season.

KEY STAT

Shokina’s first-period goal marked just the second time the Goldeneyes have scored on a power play at home this season. The team is 2-for-23 on home ice.
