The Montreal Victoire ended its preparatory mini-tournament as host team on a positive note with a 6-3 win over the Ottawa Charge on Friday afternoon at the Espace Denis-Savard rink in the Verdun Auditorium.
The main architect of this victory was Mikyla Grant-Mentis, who opened the scoring in the first period and netted the eventual game-winner at 11:47 of the third period against Gwyneth Philips.
The use of the term "main" is intentional, as Grant-Mentis was not the only player to stand out. Forward Maureen Murphy (1-1) and Kati Tabin (1-1) also recorded two points each.
Murphy had scored the lone goal in the Victoire's win against the Boston Fleet on Wednesday.
Gabrielle David and Alexandra Labelle, two Quebec players looking to secure contracts with the Victoire, tallied the other goals for the Montreal-based team.
Elaine Chuli started in net for the Victoire and allowed goals to Danielle Serdachny and Rebecca Leslie in the second period.
At the start of the third period, Chuli was replaced by Marlène Boissonnault, who gave up a goal to Tereza Vanisova, a former player for the Montreal team, midway through the third period.
