The Montreal victoire are heading to the playoffs again in the professional women's hockey league, and they are on fire right now. They blank the Vancouver Golden Eyes, three nothing on Wednesday night, with Hayley's Camura netting two goals, and Anne Renee Desbians stopping all. 18 shots for her sixth shutout. That win stretched their point streak to a league record 12 games, and they sit second overall with a 13-4-2-5 record and just six. Games left. This surge comes without their captain, Marie Philip Polin, who has been sidelined by a lower body injury since March 15th. Top defender Aaron Ambrose missed most of it too, but returned in a limited role Wednesday. Still, the team is 4-0-1-0 since her exit, proving their depth runs deep. Coach Corey Chevery called them gritty and full of character, saying anyone they put on the ice steps up through all the injuries. Desbians echoed that, highlighting how they keep battling even when key players are out. Laura Stacey, with six points in five games, stressed everyone finding their best to fill the gaps left by the world's top talent.
Camura broke a scoreless tie, eight minutes 28 seconds into the third, set up by Stacey, and Desbians held firm in a physical low scoring. Grind. No style points, but they got the job done against the pressing Vancouver squad. As they chased that third straight playoff run, the focus shifts to building chemistry, staying consistent for 60 minutes and getting players back. To 100% by May, with Polin on injured reserve at least until Sunday, this depth will carry them deep if they keep sharpening up. Stay informed with Canada News Today, AI-powered updates.
