Fans applauded after Maschmeyer was&nbsp; looked at by training staff and stayed in the game, stopping Stacey\u2019s awarded penalty shot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With no shortage of opportunity, both teams fought for every possession. Mini entanglements&nbsp; and players standing their ground in open ice raised the intensity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Montreal\u2019s Kennedy Marchment split the Ottawa defence taking a shot on net that was&nbsp; deflected away.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ottawa\u2019s Kate\u0159ina Mr\u00e1zov\u00e1 cut through the blue paint and took a diving shot before falling to&nbsp; the ice.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ottawa\u2019s defensive players Zoe Boyd and Ashton Bell provided timely blocks against at least&nbsp; two 2-on-1 Montreal opportunities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the third period Ottawa\u2019s momentum continued with quality scoring opportunities. At around&nbsp; the 7 minute mark Ottawa players crowded the Montreal net and a shot found keeper Desbiens&nbsp; dropping within inches of the goal line. Poking and jabbing, and in full view of fans on that side&nbsp; of the arena, the puck slid inches from the goal line! Desbiens\u2019s strong left pad and skate firmly&nbsp; against the post kept the puck out as she was able to covered the puck and stop play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A hooking penalty would provide the opportunity Ottawa needed to tie the game (Hayley&nbsp; Scamurra &#8211; 6:10) with a tic-tac-toe passing play between the visitor defence slipped past&nbsp; Desbiens. Nevertheless the Montreal goalie played a truly amazing&nbsp; performance, stopping 43 of the 44 shots on Saturday.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There would be two more Ottawa power plays towards the end of the third period but&nbsp; Montreal\u2019s penalty kill unit was successful in keeping the even score.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the clock running out, both teams went to the bench to prepare for overtime. During the brief intermission, arena cameras settled on Montreal\u2019s Ann-Ren\u00e9e Desbiens speaking to the bench, bringing all fans to their feet to applaud the goaltender for her great performance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the number of overtime minutes Montreal has had since the start of the season it is no&nbsp; surprise that they almost immediately gained and maintained control tactically and patiently&nbsp; pressured Ottawa.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Montreal players L. Stacey, G. David and K. Tabin would each have opportunities to win the&nbsp; game.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" data-src=\"https:\/\/nouvellesdici.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/hockey_feminin_laval_mtl-ott_27jan21.jpg\" alt=\"Montr\u00e9al-Ottawa \u00e0 la Place Bell \u00e0 Laval en hockey f\u00e9minin professionnel (27 janvier 2024) - Cr\u00e9dit photo : Carlo Primerano\" class=\"wp-image-331316 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/400;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/nouvellesdici.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/hockey_feminin_laval_mtl-ott_27jan21.jpg\" alt=\"Montr\u00e9al-Ottawa \u00e0 la Place Bell \u00e0 Laval en hockey f\u00e9minin professionnel (27 janvier 2024) - Cr\u00e9dit photo : Carlo Primerano\" class=\"wp-image-331316\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\"><sub>Montr\u00e9al-Ottawa (27 janvier 2024) &#8211; Photo credit : Carlo Primerano<\/sub><\/mark><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Assisted by A.
