VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Hannah Miller scored early in the second and the Vancouver Goldeneyes kept their slim playoff hopes alive with a 4-1 win over the Seattle Torrent in a battle between two expansion teams on Tuesday night.

Miller’s goal was her fourth of the season and 50th career PWHL point.
