The PWHL on Sunday set a women's hockey attendance record in the U.S., as a "raucous crowd" of 14,108 fans came out to Denver's Ball Arena to watch the Minnesota Frost take down the Montréal Victoire 4-2 as part of the league's nine-city Takeover Tour. The PWHL's tour began last weekend with a "lively crowd" of 12,000 in Seattle. In Vancouver on Wednesday, 19,038 fans filled up Rogers Arena, with the sold-out crowd "hitting just above the stadium's capacity for hockey games." As for potential league expansion plans, the Denver crowd responded to the attendance total with a chant: "We want a team." The league set the world attendance record twice last year, with two matchups in Canada between the Toronto and Montreal franchises. The first took place on Feb. 16 in Toronto's Scotiabank Arena in front of 19,285 fans; the second was on April 20, with 21,105 fans filling Bell Centre (YAHOO SPORTS, 1/12).
