The Ottawa Charge battled back from a two-goal deficit but ultimately fell short in overtime, dropping a 3-2 decision to the Boston Fleet at TD Place. Susanna Tapani delivered the game-winner, capitalizing on a breakaway to hand Ottawa its second consecutive overtime loss and extend Boston’s winning streak to three games.
