The Sceptres host tonight's game in a venue with 11,000 seats, giving them the opportunity to, well, likely have a lot of Victoire fans there too. It will be the sort of game with a lot of fans of both teams. Should be a great atmosphere.

The Sceptres last played a 10 days ago, as did the Victoire, when the Victoire won in regulation 3-1 in Laval over the Sceptres. 

In between has been the rivalry tour games in North America and some tournament play in Europe as part of the road to the Olympics in February. Both teams had some busy players over this period.

The Sceptres and Victoire each have six points, but the Points % is .500 and .667 respectively. This is only the fourth game of the season for Montréal.

Toronto captain Blayre Turnbull, Allie Munroe, and head coach Troy Ryan, as well as Victoire head coach Kori Cheverie are all from Nova Scotia.
