Boston Fleet beat Montreal Victoire in shootout [Video]

The Montreal Victoire blew a two-goal lead on Sunday against the Boston Fleet and then lost in a shootout in a neutral site game in Seattle.

The loss snaps the Victoire’s four-game winning streak.

Montreal got off to a hot start with Laura Stacey scoring her third of the season in the first period on a power play before Abby Boreen also got her third of the year just under four minutes before the end of the period. 

Fleet forward Hannah Bilka got one back in the second period on the power play after a Anna Wilgren penalty for hooking. 

Another Victoire penalty, this time Maureen Murphy for tripping, led to the game-tying power play goal by Boston’s Susanna Tapani. 

In the shootout, Montreal’s Mikyla Grant-Mentis, Erin Ambrose and Laura Stacey were unable to score on Fleet shot-stopper Aerin Frankel and Boston won the shootout 3-1.

Motnreal plays in Toronto on Wednesday, while Boston travels to Ottawa.
