The Sirens are 2-0-0-2 in Takeover Tour games this season, while the Victoire are 1-1-1-1.<\/p>\n The Sirens look to a halt three-game losing streak during which they\u2019ve allowed 14 goals. Wednesday\u2019s 4-1 loss against Seattle in Chicago marked the third straight game they\u2019ve given up at least four goals and ninth time overall this season, tied with the Torrent for most in the PWHL.<\/p>\n Sarah Fillier scored her fourth goal in four games on Wednesday, matching the most she\u2019s ever had in a four-game span. This follows a 14-game stretch during which she failed to score, six games longer than what had been the worst drought of her PWHL career (eight). She has four assists in four games of the season series and scored a goal and an assist last season at Little Caesars Arena in a 4-1 win over the Frost.<\/p>\n Six of the PWHL\u2019s 13 Michigan-born players are on rosters for today\u2019s teams. New York has a league-high four players from the state, with second-year forward Elle Hartje (Detroit), rookie goaltenders Kaley Doyle (Livonia) and Callie Shanahan (Commerce Township), and third-year forward Taylor Girard (Macomb), who will miss the opportunity to play in her third hometown game while on LTIR. The trio of active players will have more than 250 friends and family in attendance.<\/p>\n Hartje, who played her youth hockey with Little Caesars and Belle Tire, attended the first-ever PWHL game in Detroit as a fan on Mar. 16, 2024. One year later, she skated on Little Caesars Arena ice on Mar. 16, 2025, as a member of the Sirens. On Wednesday, she had a season-high 21:03 of ice time. The Sirens are 4-2-1-1 all-time when she has a point, including 3-0-0-0 this season.<\/p>\n New York was the only PWHL team to select two goaltenders in the 2025 PWHL Draft, with Shanahan (Boston University) in the fourth round and Doyle (Quinnipiac) in the sixth. The tandem has made it a routine to visit coffee shops on the road and provide digital reviews of their findings on their shared Instagram account @TrendyTendies.<\/p>\n Montr\u00e9al pitched a 3-0 shutout against Minnesota on Wednesday, its fifth shutout of the season, all courtesy of Ann-Ren\u00e9e Desbiens. The only PWHL team with more shutouts this season is Boston (seven). Entering this season, the Victoire had just one regular-season shutout in team history.<\/p>\n The Victoire have points in 10 straight games (6-2-2-0) and would tie a PWHL record (Toronto, 2024) if they earn a point today. The last time Montr\u00e9al lost in regulation was against New York on Jan. 18 in DC.<\/p>\n Hayley Scamurra had a season-high seven shots on goal and scored her third goal of the season against Minnesota on Wednesday. The 10 points this season for the Olympic gold medalist match her single-season career high with the PWHL (2023-24 w\/ OTT).<\/p>\n Montr\u00e9al\u2019s two Michigan-born players have both competed at Little Caesars Arena in their PWHL careers. Shiann Darkangelo (Brighton) was victorious with Boston during the inaugural season, and Abby Roque (Sault Ste. Marie) was on the winning side last season with the Sirens.<\/p>\n Roque was held off the scoresheet on Wednesday but had six points in her three previous games (1G, 5A) to set a new high for points in a season (18) and bringing her two shy of 50 points for her career. She has five points in four games against her former team (1G, 4A). Darkangelo\u2019s last point was an assist against the Sirens on Feb. 26, looking to snap her longest point drought since the inaugural season (seven games).<\/p>\n Laura Stacey also has five points in four games of the season series (1G, 4A), including two multi-assist performances on Nov. 25 and Feb. 26. She is looking for her first point after two games without, following her first trio on Mar. 19 versus Seattle (2G, 1A). With a league-high 94 shots on goal this season, she could reach 100 today and for the second time in her career, posting seven games of six or more shots on goal this season. <\/p>\n These teams rank 1-2 in the league in shots on goal per game, with the Victoire averaging 30.5 and the Sirens at 29.8. Montr\u00e9al is averaging 3.3 more SOG per game than last season, the largest improvement by any PWHL team.<\/p>\n WHAT THEY\u2019RE SAYING<\/p>\n \u201cI was so excited when the league announced that the Sirens would play in Detroit again this year. Hockeytown always shows up with the best, record-setting energy. This game means so much to me because when I look out into the crowd, there will be so many faces from people in my life and jerseys from teams that shaped me. There is no better game than this one to get to be the first nationally televised game. I could go on about how amazing Michigan hockey is and how this city and state made me fall in love with the sport. Last time we played here, we brought our best Sirens hockey and the girls are ready to bring that same energy and find a win today.\u201d \u2013 Sirens forward Elle Hartje<\/p>\n \u201cI think both teams are going through their own pieces of adversity, so it’ll be which team rallies around that adversity best. I think our team has been doing a great job of playing a consistent hockey game, a consistent hockey style, and being hard to play against, being physical, and trying to be within the rules at the same time. I think you’re going to see a physical battle, and you’re going to see two desperate teams who are continuing to look for three points.\u201d – Victoire Head Coach Kori Cheverie.<\/p>\n SATURDAY\u2019S GAME: The PWHL returns to Little Caesars Arena for the 14th game of the 16-game PWHL Takeover Tour\u2122 following a 4-3 win by Vancouver over Boston back on Jan. 3. Today\u2019s game will be the league\u2019s first-ever on national linear television in the United States, with the PWHL teaming up with Ally Financial, the game\u2019s presenting partner, and Scripps Sports for the historic broadcast. With national over-the-air television coverage in both the U.S. (ION) and Canada (CBC\/Radio-Canada), today\u2019s game will have an unprecedented level of reach for women\u2019s sports. Detroit is one of five markets to host multiple Takeover Tour games this season along with Chicago, Denver, Edmonton and Halifax, and the first neutral-site market in PWHL history to host four games. The first two PWHL games in Detroit set U.S. professional women\u2019s hockey attendance records, with 13,736 fans during the inaugural season, followed by a crowd of 14,288 last March when the PWHL celebrated its one millionth fan. The U.S. attendance record has been broken three times this season during Seattle\u2019s inaugural home opener in November (16,014), the ninth stop of the Takeover Tour in Washington, D.C. (17,228), and most recently in Seattle\u2019s first home game post-Olympics on Feb. 27 with 17,335 fans at Climate Pledge Arena. Little Caesars Arena is one of 32 venues to host a PWHL game all-time, including one of 18 venues with a current NHL team. Both of those numbers will increase by three by season\u2019s end. All four games at Little Caesars Arena have been part of a double-header in Hockeytown, with the PWHL taking the afternoon time slot for the first time today before the Detroit Red Wings take on the Philadelphia Flyers tonight. The PWHL has partnered with local nonprofits including Detroit USO, ESCH and Special Olympics for today\u2019s game to promote gender equity and empower the next generation of female leaders by offering access to live women’s sports experiences. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Saturday, March 28, 2026 | 1 p.m. ET | Little Caesars Arena – Detroit WATCH LIVE: ION, TV20…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":567171,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194292],"tags":[49,48,2338],"class_list":["post-567170","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-montreal","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-montreal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567170","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=567170"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567170\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/567171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=567170"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=567170"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=567170"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
