Poulin scores shootout winner as Team Harvey's rallies past Team Sonnet at PWHPA Dream Gap Tour showcase

Team Harvey's and Team Adidas picked up wins on Friday as the Professional Women's Hockey Players' Association's Dream Gap Tour resumed with games in Gatineau, Que., and Kemptville, Ont.

Canadian superstar Marie-Philip Poulin scored the shootout winner as Team Harvey's stormed back late to defeat Team Sonnet 3-2 in Gatineau, while Team Adidas beat Team Scotiabank 2-1 earlier on Friday in Kemptville.

Poulin fired the puck past goalie Nicole Hensley to give Team Harvey's its seventh straight win, with the last loss coming on Oct. 15 at the Montreal showcase. The four-time Olympic medallist from Beauceville, Que., also scored and collected an assist in regulation as her team erased a two-goal deficit late in the third period.

Team Sonnet led 2-0 entering the third following first-period goals from forwards Natasza Tarnowski and Abby Roque, but Team Harvey's defender Lee Stecklein scored from the point with just over two minutes left in regulation.

Poulin and Laura Fortino assisted the momentum-shifting goal.

Team Harvey's continued to apply pressure, as Jessie Eldridge scored an unassisted equalizer from behind the goal line with just 1.7 seconds left, sending the game to overtime.

Both goalies made big stops in the extra frame. Hensley denied Poulin with a blocker save, while Ann-Renée Desbiens stopped American star Hilary Knight on a breakaway at the buzzer.
