Rebecca Leslie scores in OT as Charge rally for 4-3 win over Sceptres
TORONTO (AP) --- Rebecca Leslie scored two goals, including one in overtime, as
the Ottawa Charge rallied from a three-goal deficit to beat the Toronto
Sceptres 4-3 on Tuesday night.
Leslie stepped into a wrist shot and beat Toronto goalie Raygan Kirk on a power
play 1:24 into extra time to lead the Charge to their second straight overtime
win.
Gabbie Hughes and Brooke Hobson also scored for the Charge, who put up four
unanswered goals to complete the comeback.
Brianne Jenner had two assists, and Gwyneth Philips stopped 34 of the 37 shots
she faced in Ottawa's net.
Maggie Connors put Toronto on the scoreboard less than two minutes into the
game, and the Sceptres maintained control through the first 25 minutes.
Daryl Watts and Ella Shelton also had goals for the Sceptres, and Kirk made 33
saves.
Ottawa began the comeback in the second period when Leslie scored to cut the
deficit to 3-1 just 14 seconds after Shelton stretched Toronto's lead to 3-0.
Toronto was without star defender Renata Fast for the second straight game, and
also lost Allie Munroe during the action. Munroe did not return after crashing
into the end boards.
