Abby Roque scored twice, Ann-Renée Desbiens made 23 saves and the Montreal Victoire won their first PWHL title, beating the Ottawa Charge 4-0 on Wednesday night in Game 4 of the Walter Cup Finals.

Hayley Scamurra and Lina Ljungblom also scored. Montreal opened the best-of-five series at home with two overtime victories, then fell 2-1 at Ottawa on Monday night. Home teams had won the last five finals games.

The Minnesota Frost won the first two titles in league history, beating Ottawa in four games last year in the championship series.

Roque opened the scoring at 3:49 of the second period on a deflection off Ottawa defender Rory Guilday’s stick. On a break with scoring star Marie-Philip Poulin, Roque went deep into the right corner and swept the puck to the middle, where it glanced off Guilday’s stick and past goalie Gwyneth Philips.
