Daryl Watts scores twice, including OT winner, as surging Sceptres sink Charge [Video]

Daryl Watts scored 51 seconds into overtime, propelling the Toronto Sceptres to a 3-2 Professional Women’s Hockey League victory over the Ottawa Charge Sunday at Rogers Place.

It was Watts’ second goal of the game — part of the PWHL’s Takeover Tour — following a second-period power-play marker. Julia Gosling also scored for Toronto (6-2-4-6) with the man advantage.

Gosling’s marker found its way through the pads of Charge goalie Emerance Maschmeyer with 23.4 seconds left in the second period

A power-play marker from Gabbie Hughes on the first shot of the game had staked Ottawa (6-0-3-8) to an early lead. Hughes took a crisp pass from Jincy Roese, then rotated from her backhand to her forehand before sweeping the puck past Toronto netminder Raygan Kirk.
