MONTREAL – Heading into the CWHL’s Clarkson Cup playoffs as regular season champs, Les Canadiennes are ready to cap off their dream season in style.
From the moment the team suffered a heart-breaking overtime defeat in last year’s Clarkson Cup Final, the players of the then-Montreal Stars began counting down the days to the start of the 2015-16 campaign.
In the months that followed, the good news hasn’t stopped rolling in for the CWHL’s winningest team. An NHL partnership with the Canadiens was announced, the best female hockey player in the world elected to come back home to Quebec to continue her professional career, and the organization kicked off the season by unveiling a brand new name and logo.
