Montréal rolls into this series in fourth place despite having played the least amount of games in the league, which bodes well for them. With five more games under their belt, Markham has played the most in the league and sits fifth, which is not quite as positive.
Jenna McParland was a scratch again this game, which comes as no surprise — that injury in Shenzhen looked pretty nasty. Other scratches were Alexis Woloschuk and Nicole Kosta. Kosta has now missed over two thirds of the season to date, possibly due to a collision with Kelli Stack in Markham’s first series against KRS.
