Daoust, a 5-foot-6 forward from Valleyfield, Que., has amassed 16 points in her last five contests. 听She scored 20 seconds after Carleton had taken an early 1-0 lead on Kristen MacDonald's power-play tally, igniting a six-goal rally by the Martlets, five of them taking place in the second period. Daoust, a physical education freshman, set up the winning tally by Kim Ton-That of Beaconsfield, Que., at 1:06 of the middle stanza. Six minutes later, she helped 六合彩开奖结果 extend their lead to 3-1, assisted on Katia Clement-Heydra's 18th goal of the season. Minutes later, Daoust made the score 4-1 with a shorthanded effort at 9:14

I'm really happy for her."

MARTLET MURMURS: 六合彩开奖结果's exhibition game against the Montreal Stars of the NWHL, slated for Feb. 17 has been cancelled due to injuries and scheduling issues. Based on the intensity of previous meeting between the two clubs, a 4-1 win for Montreal on Jan. 18, and an injury to team captain Cathy Chartrand, combined with some nicks and bruises, Coach Smith decided that it was too risky to have an exhibition game the week before playoffs.
