TORONTO (December 23, 2025) – The Ottawa Charge erased a 3-0 deficit to earn a second straight overtime win, defeating the Toronto Sceptres 4-3 on Tuesday night at Coca-Cola Coliseum before a crowd of 8,108. Rebecca Leslie’s two-goal performance initiated the comeback at 6:22 of the second period, then sealed the win against her former team with the overtime goal scored on the power play just 1:24 into extra time. Gabbie Hughes brought the Charge to within one goal at 14:12 of the middle frame with her first of the season on the power play, and defender Brooke Hobson got her first as a member of the Charge to tie the game at 4:36 of the third period. Maggie Connors scored her first of the season at 1:38 of the first period to give the Sceptres their quickest lead of the season. Daryl Watts made it 2-0 at 7:32 of the first period, then defender Ella Shelton made it 3-0 at 6:08 of the second. Shots were an even 37-37, season highs for both teams, with Gwyneth Philips earning the win with 34 saves opposite Raygan Kirk who stopped a season-high of 33. Ottawa’s win is the largest comeback of the PWHL season and in team history on the heels of a thrilling overtime victory over Minnesota in Chicago during the Takeover Tour on Sunday. Toronto had an opposite result in their first Takeover Tour game in Halifax, losing to Montréal in a shootout Wednesday, but have points in three straight games after a Sunday win in New York. Both teams return to action on Saturday afternoon following a short holiday break with Ottawa at home to Boston and Toronto in Montréal for the Duel at the Top at the Bell Centre.
