OTTAWA, ON (February 22, 2025) – Emily Clark tallied two goals and an assist to lead the Ottawa Charge to a 3-1 victory over the Montréal Victoire in front of a sold-out crowd at TD Place on Saturday afternoon. Clark found a wide-open Stephanie Markowski in front of the net, assisting on the rookie’s first-ever PWHL goal which opened the scoring and gave the Charge the lead heading into the first intermission. On a Victoire power play, Laura Stacey found the back of the net to knot the game at one. With four minutes left in the second period, Clark tapped in a feed from Mannon McMahon to put the Charge back in the lead heading into the final frame. After a back-and-forth final period with Montréal pushing to find the equalizer, Clark fired the puck down the ice and into an empty Montréal net with just over a minute left to play to secure the win. Rookie goaltender Gwyneth Philips picked up her second-career win in net for the Charge, stopping 15 of 16 shots faced. Ann-Renée Desbiens turned aside 25 of 27 shots at the other end of the ice. The win gives Ottawa their first in five games against Montréal this season. The Charge remain in fifth place with 25 points, only three points behind Boston and five up on New York. Montréal falls for the second straight game but remain in the league’s top spot with 34 points and hold a five-point lead on Minnesota and Toronto with two games in hand.
