Less than 24 hours after Les Canadiennes lost to the Calgary Inferno by a score of 5-4, the two teams were back in action against one another at the Complexe Sportif Bell in Brossard on Sunday afternoon.
Jill Saulnier and Ann-Sophie Bettez each picked up two points in the Canadiennes’ 3-0 victory over the Inferno, while Marie-Philip Poulin picked up two goals and an assist. Goaltender Emerance Maschmeyer turned away 24 shots for the shutout.
A goaltending battle between Maschmeyer — who was named the game’s first star — and Calgary’s Alex Rigsby emerged quickly in the first period, and continued for the rest of the game.
