MONTRÉAL, QC – The Montréal Victoire announced on Thursday that the club has activated goaltender Ann-Renée Desbiens from the long term-injured reserve (LTIR).
Last week, the 31-year-old was placed on LTIR retroactively to March 18 when she sustained a lower-body injury in a game against the Boston Fleet.
Desbiens, who is representing Canada at the IIHF World Championship, still leads all PWHL goaltenders in all three main categories with 13 wins, a 1.85 goals against average, along with a .932 save percentage.
Goaltender Tricia Deguire will remain with the team for the duration of the international break.
