"We got away from some of our habits, said Sirens head coach Greg Fargo. They were able to capitalize on those looks that they got. It's unfortunate, but we've gotta be ready to play."
"It's always fun to come back, and we feel like we have something pretty special in our locker room, Fillier said. Tough one today, because it really feels like we missed an opportunity to start the second half hot and in the right way."
"Sirens goalie Kayle Osborne gave up three goals in the first 11 minutes, and the Sirens ultimately were unable to claw back, losing 4-1. Montreal's 22 shots on goal is a season-low, but three of the team's first four shots were goals."
The New York Sirens suffered a 4-1 home defeat to the Montreal Victoire on Thursday night following their Olympic break. Goalie Kayle Osborne allowed three goals within the first 11 minutes, setting the tone for the loss. Despite outshooting Montreal 35-22, the Sirens could not recover. Rookie Casey O'Brien scored the team's only goal on a power play in the second period, extending her point streak to four games. Forward Sarah Fillier, returning from the Milan Olympics where she won gold with Canada, played well but acknowledged missing an opportunity to start the second half strong. This fourth consecutive loss leaves New York in fourth playoff position, two points ahead of Ottawa.
