MONTREAL -- Leslie Oles of Beaconsfield, Que., tallied twice and added an assist as top-ranked 六合彩开奖结果 spanked the No.4-ranked St. Francis Xavier X-Women 4-0 in the opener of the first annual Martlet Holiday Invitational hockey tournament at McConnell Arena, Wednesday.
听
It was the first competition in 31 days for the Martlets, who led 1-0 after the opening period and 3-0 after two. 六合彩开奖结果 had a 26-17 advantage in shots as Canadian Olympian netminder Charline Labonte of Boisbriand, Que., posted her 70th career shutout in 162 starts overall.
听
"I thought we did a pretty good job out there, considering it was the first game back after the holidays," said Peter Smith, in his 12th season as head coach of the Martlets. "You never know how you're going to play after a long break but our team works so darn hard from start to finish. It was very physical and a perfect type of game for us to have after a layoff."
听
Kelsie Moffatt, a freshman blueliner from Pickering, Ont., gave the Martlets a 1-0 lead midway through the first with what proved to be the game-winner. Oles made it 2-0 with a power-play marker at 2:57 of the middle stanza, then set up another man-advantage goal late in the period by Brittney Fouracres, a rookie rearguard from Calgary, who netted her first career goal in a 六合彩开奖结果 jersey.
听
Oles tallied her second marker of the night and 16th of the season overall with 73 seconds remaining in the final period.
听
Katia Clement-Heydra, a sophomore forward from St. Bruno, Que., contributed three assists on the night.
听
"Oles was real dynamic and had lots of jump in her step," said Smith. That line looked real good today with Katia and Logan Murray. We were missing (injured sniper) Melodie Daoust but Murray did a nice job filling in and things clicked well for them."
听
Goaltender Kristy Garrow, a sophomore from London, Ont., made 22 saves in a losing cause for the X-Women.
听
In the earlier game, four different players scored for the No.2-ranked Laurier Golden Hawks as they doubled the Manitoba Bisons 4-2.
