Victoire Players to Watch
Marie-Philip Poulin
Captain Clutch is back from injury and has already begun to leave her mark on the 2026 Playoffs. The reigning PWHL Billie Jean King MVP will look to lead the Victoire to a championship after playing at nearly a point per game pace during the regular season.
Ann-Renée Desbiens
The reigning PWHL Goaltender of the Year, Desbiens is having another vintage season for the Victoire, leading the league with a miniscule 1.11 GAA (including seven shutouts) over the regular season.
Laura Stacey
The heart of the Victoire's attack, especially when legendary teammate Marie-Philip Poulin was out with injury, Stacey tallied 22 points over the regular season and seems to be in the middle of every big moment for Montréal.
Abby Roque
Roque has been an impact player for Montréal all season, notching a career-high 22 points (8G, 14A) in the regular season and tacking on five points through the Victoire's first six post-season games, including the game winner in the Finals opener.

Charge Players to Watch

The Charge captain has been one of the top scorers in the PWHL in all three of the league's season, but she reached a new level this campaign with a career-high 12 goals, 14 assists and 26 points.
Jocelyne Larocque
A durable defender for Team Canada and the Charge, Larocque has notched eight points this season while averaging a team-high 22:43 time on ice per game.
Rebecca Leslie
Playing with the Charge for the second season after spending the 2024 campaign with Toronto, Leslie (whose previous career-high in points was nine) exploded for 14 goals and 9 assists this regular season.
Gwyneth Philips
After a standout rookie season, Philips was named the 2025 PWHL Ilana Kloss Playoff MVP despite her team losing in the finals. She closed out a great 2025-26 regular season with a shutout in the crucial finale.
