Ottawa Charge Stun Montreal Victoire in Game 4 Upset—What This Shocking Win Means for the PWHL Finals
The low scores were largely due to excellent goaltending by Desbiens and Philips, who lead the PWHL postseason in shots against, saves, save percentage and goals-against average.
“The whole series has been a battle of the goaltenders,” said Cheverie.

Philips — the rookie goalie who has been thrust into the starter’s crease, with Emerance Maschmeyer on LTIR — has the edge in nearly every category, with a league-leading .956 save percentage and 1.14 goals against average. Desbiens finished the series with the most saves (132). In Philips’ last two games, she has made 45 saves on 46 shots for back-to-back wins to lead Ottawa to the Finals.
