Three Ottawa teams hit the ice today in OWHL action: • the Sens look to continue building off their shutout win yesterday over Windsor, as they take on Bluewater • Nepean returns to the ice for a game against Toronto • the Stars look to rebound in a game against Windsor

Adrianna Milani (OWHL’s Etobicoke Dolphins) has announced her commitment to the University of Minnesota. I think this is the perfect landing spot for her. A tremendous coach in Brad Frost who plays a solid system, a program that ranks higher each year, and a great core group.

Congratulations to Emma Rhéaume who picked up her first collegiate win tonight, as Union shutout Franklin Pierce 2-0. The Neuville, QC native made 19 saves and also received Player of the Game honours.

Ottawa goes 2-2 on the day at the rink. Let’s recap: OWHL • Jr Sens get their first win, shutting out Windsor 3-0 • Stars lose their first, 2-1, to Cambridge • 67s lose to Toronto 2-1 USPORTS (preseason) • Gee Gees win 3-2 over Montreal

Final (OWHL): Toronto 2, Ottawa 1 Only Maude McCarthy, who scored on the power play in the first, was able to solve Toronto starter Samantha Besner, who finished with 21 saves. Sophia Liu and Lily Malden scored for Toronto, while Livia Debnarová made 35 saves in the loss.

Final (OWHL): Etobicoke 2, Mississauga 3 A late second period goal from Bronwyn Langis, her second of the game, proved to be the game winner for Mississauga. Annabelle Kruzich scored the other for the Hurricanes, while Rachel Piggott netted both of Etobicoke’s goals.

Final (OWHL): Ottawa 1, Cambridge 2 Special teams was the story in this one, as the Stars suffer their first loss of the season. Cambridge scored two on the power play, one from Avery Randall, the other from Reese Reid. Molly Cote (PP) was the only goal scorer for Ottawa.

It’s all tied 1-1 heading into the third period between the East Ottawa Jr Stars and Cambridge. Avery Randall scored her first of the season on the power play to give Cambridge the early lead. Ottawa’s Molly Cote, also on the power play, tied things up in the second.
