OTTAWA, Ontario — Ottawa Charge's playoff hopes were defeated Tuesday night following a 6-3 defeat to New York Cylens.
The charges blew a 3-0 third-term lead, allowing the final siren to score six consecutive goals.
Ottawa, who is outside the fifth and the playoffs, appeared to be in control of the game after 40 minutes, but Jesse Eldridge's third early goal brought New York to life.
A back-to-back penalty allowed the Sirens to tie the game together.
Sarah Fillier scored to make it a one-goal game, and Jade Downey Landry tied the game over three minutes later.
Sales led to a New York goal, with Downey Laundry winning the second of the night.
Just a minute later, he won the second game with less than eight minutes remaining in regulation. Alex Carpenter added an empty net goal to round out his scoring.
The unfortunate 20 minutes ruined what was a solid start with the price.
Rebecca Leslie scored her first goal of the season midway through her first season with a jailbreak goal.
Emily Clark made it 2-0 in the ninth of the season, with Captain Brian Jenner 3-0 in the second half, with Kale Osborne (retiring 15 shots) defeating the high blocker.
