MONTREAL — Danièle Sauvageau says there’s so much interest in the Professional Women’s Hockey League game at the Bell Centre that she’s searching for ways to outsmart the arena’s security.
Superstar captain Marie-Philip Poulin remembers playing in front of 5,938 fans at the Bell Centre in December 2016 when her Canadiennes de Montreal hosted the Calgary Inferno in the now-defunct Canadian Women’s Hockey League. "I know for me there are a lot of people who didn't even get tickets, so 21,000 wasn't even enough,” Montreal goalie Ann-Renée Desbiens said."People come, they bring friends, they look for more tickets. It says a lot about the talent on the ice, the level of play, the organizations, the media coverage.
With so much success, Sauvageau said playing in bigger arenas will become more common moving forward.But while the crowd will garner much of the attention on Saturday, there’s also an important game on the ice.
