The loss in front of an announced 8,452 at TD Place snapped a four-game win streak for Ottawa .They outshot Montreal 9-1 by the halfway mark of the period, but were unable to beat Desbiens.“She’s a world class goalie and she kept her team in it today, particularly in the third,” Ottawa’s coach Carla MacLeod said. “We had our chances though and today the puck didn’t go in, but that’s part of our world and sometimes that happens in a game.
“It was a bit of a mutual decision,” Desbiens said. “I looked at the play on the video screen and so did she and I think she was a little uncertain, but I was the one in the net. For me, it was evident. “The second period was pretty rough,” said Ottawa’s Daryl Watts. “We all know where we struggled and what we need to do better and how we need to play moving forward in the second to not lose all momentum.”
