OTTAWA, ON (January 14, 2025) – The Toronto Sceptres snapped a three-game losing streak with their first win on the road this season, skating to a 4-2 victory over the Ottawa Charge at TD Place. The Charge opened the scoring with a power play goal from rookie Mannon McMahon, before Hannah Miller responded for the Sceptres nearly six minutes later. Miller’s goal found the twine just one second after Ottawa’s second penalty of the game expired to knot the game at one. Sceptres forward Maggie Connors sniped her first goal of the season eight minutes into the second frame to give Toronto their first lead of the game. Ottawa’s Victoria Bach was credited with an equalizer four minutes later with a fortuitous break to tie the game once more heading into the final period. The goal was Bach’s fourth point in four games since being acquired in a trade from Toronto on Dec. 30. The Sceptres pulled ahead with a third-period goal from captain Blayre Turnbull, followed by an empty-net goal from Emma Maltais to secure the win for the Sceptres. Kristen Campbell stopped 22 of 24 shots in net for the Sceptres to secure the win, while Emerance Maschmeyer made 35 saves on 38 shots at the other end of the ice.
