The Montreal Victoire finished second overall in the regular season with 41 points, but their playoff run left a sour taste in their mouths with a three-game sweep from Boston where they lost every game in overtime.
American forward Maureen Murphy finished tied for third in rookie scoring with five goals and 16 points in 24 games after a six-year NCAA career with Providence College and Northeastern University. Amanda Boulier returns to Montreal after being acquired from Ottawa in March via trade. In her six games with Montreal, she averaged about 20 minutes of ice time.The Victoire drafted defender Cayla Barnes fifth overall, but her PWHL debut will have to wait as she recovers from an injury suffered with Team USA during the Rivalry Series.
In goal, Montreal boasts one of the best tandems in the league in Ann-Renée Desbiens and Elaine Chuli.
