OTTAWA, ON - The Toronto Sceptres secured a 3-2 overtime win over the Ottawa Charge on Sunday afternoon in the first of two head-to-head preseason scrimmages at TD Place. Maggie Connors scored the overtime winner on a breakaway, while the Sceptres' 2025 PWHL Draft picks Kiara Zanon and Emma Gentry scored during regulation. The Charge's goals were scored by Taylor House and offseason signee Élizabeth Giguère tied the game with 1:25 left to play in regulation. Elaine Chuli stopped 11 of 13 shots for Toronto, while Ottawa split time in net with Sanni Ahola playing the game's first half turning aside all 11 shots faced, then Logan Angers made 12 saves on 15 shots through the second half and extra time. Nine players for the Charge took PWHL ice for the first time, with another six from the Sceptres. The teams will take to the ice again tomorrow at 1 p.m. ET for their second and final scrimmage of the league's preseason.
