OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — Ann-Renee Desbiens posted the first shutout of her Professional Women’s Hockey League career in Montreal’s 2-0 win over Ottawa on Saturday.
Desbiens, who backstopped Canada to a gold medal in the world championship final earlier this month, stopped all 31 shots she faced.
“It’s not so much the shutout as much as the win,” said Desbiens. “If it helped us win, I’ll take it.”
Laura Stacey and Maureen Murphy scored for Montreal (10-3-5-5), which has a playoff spot secured in the PWHL’s inaugural season.
Ottawa’s Emerance Maschmeyer, the No. 2 goalie on the Canadian team, turned away 21 shots.
A playoff spot remained in Ottawa’s reach with two games remaining in its regular season.
The loss in front of an announced 8,452 at TD Place snapped a four-game win streak for Ottawa (8-1-6-7).
Trailing 1-0, Ottawa came out flying in the third looking for the equalizer.
