It\u2019s unfortunate, but we\u2019ve gotta be ready to play.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Sirens outshot the Victoire 35-22. Montr\u00e9al\u2019s 22 shots on goal is a season-low, but three of the team\u2019s first four shots were goals.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p>This loss is New York\u2019s fourth in a row \u2014 however, the team is still in playoff position as the No. 4 seed. The Sirens are up two points on the Ottawa Charge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137834333\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137834333 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137834333\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_6366.jpg\" alt=\"The New York Sirens lost to Montr\u00e9al on Thursday night.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"895\" title=\"New York Sirens fall to Montr\u00e9al\u2019s Victoire 4-1 following Olympics 2\"  \/><\/a>The New York Sirens lost to Montr\u00e9al on Thursday night.Photo by Lloyd Mitchell <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137834332\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137834332 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137834332\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_6247.jpg\" alt=\"The New York Sirens lost to Montr\u00e9al on Thursday night.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"New York Sirens fall to Montr\u00e9al\u2019s Victoire 4-1 following Olympics 3\"  \/><\/a>The New York Sirens lost to Montr\u00e9al on Thursday night.Photo by Lloyd Mitchell<\/p>\n<p>Sirens rookie Casey O\u2019Brien got the Sirens on the board early in the second period on a power play, assisted by Maja Nyl\u00e9n Persson and Sarah Fillier. This is O\u2019Brien\u2019s fifth goal of the season,\u00a0 and it extended her point streak to four games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sirens forward Fillier played well despite returning from the Milan Olympics only two days ago. As a member of Canada\u2019s women\u2019s hockey team, she scored the only goal for her team in the gold medal game last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s always fun to come back, and we feel like we have something pretty special in our locker room,\u201d Fillier said. \u201cTough one today, because it really feels like we missed an opportunity to start the second half hot and in the right way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137834334\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137834334 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137834334\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_9880.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"899\" title=\"New York Sirens fall to Montr\u00e9al\u2019s Victoire 4-1 following Olympics 4\"  \/><\/a>Photo by Lloyd Mitchell <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137834335\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137834335 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137834335\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_9975.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"773\" title=\"New York Sirens fall to Montr\u00e9al\u2019s Victoire 4-1 following Olympics 5\"  \/><\/a>The New York Sirens lost to Montr\u00e9al on Thursday night.Photo by Lloyd Mitchell<\/p>\n<p>Osborne also won a silver medal with Canada, but was a backup goalie and didn\u2019t see any ice time.

Lot going on for her over the last three weeks, and others as well. Not her best, but we knows she\u2019ll respond really well,\u201d Fargo said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Backup Callie Shanahan came in and stopped 15 of 16 shots \u2014 her second Sirens appearance ever.
