Montreal Victoire and Toronto Sceptres Clash in PWHL’s Vancouver Showdown
Tonight, the PWHL Takeover Tour takes center stage as the Montreal Victoire face the Toronto Sceptres at Vancouver’s Rogers Arena. This electrifying matchup will be broadcast live at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT on TSN1/3/5 and streamed on TSN.ca and the TSN app. It's a key game in a season already brimming with excitement.
The Victoire, currently leading the PWHL standings, are looking to bounce back after a narrow 3-2 shootout loss to the Boston Fleet earlier this week. They built a strong lead with goals from Laura Stacey and Abby Boreen but ultimately fell short in the shootout. Despite the loss, Montreal remains the team to beat, with an impressive 14 points in the standings. However, their power play continues to struggle, operating at a league-low 10.7%.

On the other hand, Toronto enters the game with something to prove. Sitting at the bottom of the standings, the Sceptres have had a challenging season. Their power play has been a bright spot at 23.5%, but their penalty kill has been their Achilles’ heel, ranked last in the league at 66.7%. They have allowed seven power-play goals in just seven games—a glaring weakness they’ll need to address against Montreal.
The two teams have faced off once before this season in a thrilling December matchup that saw Montreal clinch a 4-3 overtime win. Laura Stacey delivered the game-winning goal just 15 seconds into overtime. With Montreal’s stellar defense and Toronto’s determination to climb the standings, tonight’s game promises to be another nail-biter.
As part of the PWHL’s Takeover Tour, this matchup also highlights the league’s effort to showcase women’s hockey across North America. Vancouver is the latest stop, with upcoming games scheduled in cities like Denver, Quebec City, and Edmonton. Fans can expect elite-level competition as teams battle for dominance in this historic season of professional women’s hockey.
Don’t miss a moment as these two teams lay it all on the line. Tune in and witness the future of women’s hockey!
