Montreal Victoire beat the Ottawa Charge 4-0 in Game 4 in Ottawa to clinch the Walter Cup, becoming the first Canadian PWHL champions. Abby Roque scored twice, including a deflected centering pass that beat Ottawa goalie Gwyn Philips for the clinching goal. Ann-Renée Desbiens made 23 saves in the shutout, and the victory hands the Walter Cup to a Canadian club for the first time, a major milestone for professional women's hockey in Canada.

I love that my head of state can simple congratulate a team on a job well done without the need to denigrate anyone. It’s so refreshing.

Honestly out of all Victoire games I’ve watched this was easily one of the best ones! Here’s the second goal Abby Roque scored, as seen from a Montreal pub (while we were in 4-5): bsky.app/profile/cele...

Marie-Philip Poulin may not have been 100% in the 2026 Walter Cup playoffs, but she was everything and more for the Montreal Victoire being named the Ilona Kloss Playoff MVP. thehockeynews.com/womens/pwhl/...

Excited to welcome the PWHL to the Golden State! The Bay Area is home to one of the largest ice facilities in the Western US, and CA now ranks 6th nationally in girls’ hockey participation — trailing only 5 colder-climate states Can’t wait to welcome the Walter Cup to CA with PWHL San Jose!
