Montreal Victoire Secures Shootout Win Over Toronto Sceptres in PWHL Thriller

Laura Stacey's impactful return and Elaine Chuli's standout goaltending help Montreal extend their winning streak to four games.

Laura Stacey returned to the Montreal Victoire lineup after an 18-day injury absence, contributing a goal, two assists, and a shootout score in the team's 4-3 victory over the Toronto Sceptres.
Goaltender Elaine Chuli made 37 saves, including crucial stops in the third period and overtime, before sealing the win in the shootout.
Marie-Philip Poulin and Stacey scored in the shootout, while Julia Gosling netted the lone shootout goal for Toronto.
Despite their league-leading position, Montreal continues to struggle with special teams, allowing two power-play goals and ranking in the lower half for power-play and penalty-kill efficiency.
Montreal's recent success has been fueled by balanced scoring, with 17 different players contributing points during their five wins in the last six games.
