McMahon, Philips lift Charge to 1-0 win over Victoire, lead semifinal series 2-1
OTTAWA — Mannon McMahon broke a scoreless tie at 8:42 of the third period to lift the Ottawa Charge to a 1-0 playoff victory over the Montreal Victoire on Tuesday night.
McMahon won a battle along the boards to free the puck and skated to the front of the net where she put home a Gabbie Hughes rebound to give the Charge the win and the 2-1 lead in the best-of-five Professional Women's Hockey League semifinal series.

How to watch the 2025 RBC Canadian Open: Tee times, streaming info, updated odds for PGA tournament
Rory McIlroy looks to bounce back after his disappointing finish at the PGA Championship. Nick Taylor and Corey Conners lead a large Canadian contingent into Toronto. The forthcoming Canadian Open boasts a new venue and has a lot to offer its audience, despite a couple of notable dropouts. Here are the basics to know before tee-off. Advertisement PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will provide exclusive early coverage and featured group coverage beginning at 6:45 a.m. on Thursday and Friday, and 7:45 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. CBS coverage can also be streamed on Paramount+, and TSN coverage can also be streamed on TSN+. and the NBC Sports App will offer live simulcasts of Golf Channel's telecasts. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler has won three of the past six PGA outings, but he'll sit out this weekend to rest up before the U.S. Open on June 12. Canada's top tournament still holds gravity, though. Its purse is $9.8 million, and its history is longer than that of all but one non-major Tour event (the BMW Championship, originally played as the Western Open in 1899). The inaugural 1904 installment was played in Quebec, but the most frequent location has been Ontario's Glen Abbey, with 30 different hosting turns. This is the Canadian Open's first time at TPC Toronto, a course opened in 1992 and renovated by Ian Andrew in 2023. All-universe golfer Rory McIlroy is the favorite to win this tourney (+450 moneyline). He has already claimed the hardware twice: in 2019, by a commanding seven strokes, and then again in 2022 (the event was cancelled in 2020-21 due to the COVID-19 pandemic). McIlroy hits this weekend second to Scheffler in both the World Golf Rankings and FedEx Cup points. Scottish golfer Robert MacIntyre won last year's Open. American golfers have traditionally dominated this event, with 74 total first-place finishes across 59 different champions. Canada comes in at fourth place, trailing the U.S., England and Australia. Canadian Nick Taylor knocked off England's Tommy Fleetwood in 2023 via a thrilling playoff. His clinching 72-foot putt is worth a rewatch this weekend, especially for the top-shelf Jim Nantz call ('Are you serious? Oh my goodness, glorious and free!'). Advertisement Ludvig Åberg has the field's second-best odds behind McIlroy at +1400. He won his second PGA Tour event in February at the Genesis Invitational, where he sank a career-first hole-in-one. Hometown hero Corey Conners (+1800) is tied for third-best odds alongside Ireland's Shane Lowry. 6:45 a.m. Justin Lower Nicolai Højgaard Dylan Wu 6:45 a.m. Beau Hossler Henrik Norlander Roger Sloan 6:56 a.m. Chad Ramey Andrew Putnam Rico Hoey 6:56 a.m. Mark Hubbard Sam Ryder Greyson Sigg 7:07 a.m. Doug Ghim Hayden Buckley Mac Meissner 7:07 a.m. Mike Weir Chan Kim Ben Silverman 7:18 a.m. Davis Riley Lee Hodges Gary Woodland 7:18 a.m. Sam Burns Max Homa Sungjae Im 7:29 a.m. Matthieu Pavon Adam Svensson Aaron Wise 7:29 a.m. Nick Taylor Taylor Pendrith Mackenzie Hughes 7:40 a.m. Thomas Detry Keith Mitchell Byeong Hun An 7:40 a.m. Rory McIlroy Ludvig Åberg Luke Clanton 7:51 a.m. Camilo Villegas Emiliano Grillo Nick Hardy 7:51 a.m. Harry Hall Taylor Moore Kurt Kitayama 8:02 a.m. Joel Dahmen Patrick Rodgers Carson Young 8:02 a.m. Nate Lashley Alex Smalley Victor Perez 8:13 a.m. Kaito Onishi Myles Creighton Matthew Anderson 8:13 a.m. Matteo Manassero Jackson Suber Ashton McCulloch 8:24 a.m. Kevin Velo Braden Thornberry Wes Heffernan 8:24 a.m. Thomas Rosenmueller Mason Andersen Josh Goldenberg 8:35 a.m. Niklas Norgaard Gordon Sargent Johnny Keefer 8:35 a.m. Paul Peterson Philip Knowles Hunter Thomson 8:46 a.m. Antoine Rozner Vince Covello Wei-Hsuan Wang 8:46 a.m. Hayden Springer Harrison Endycott Cougar Collins 8:57 a.m. Noah Goodwin Yi Cao Barend Botha 8:57 a.m. Takumi Kanaya Trevor Cone A.J.

'Leading today's final round of the Bell Canadian Open by one stroke on the final hole, Woods executed a shot that required both boldness and brilliance. Standing in a fairway bunker, 218 yards from the pin, with water guarding the front and right sides of the green, Woods hit a 6-iron shot that will add to his legend. As his club met the ball, it rocketed out of the bunker and soared majestically as the gallery at Glen Abbey Golf Club watched, eyes staring upward as if they were watching a space-shuttle launch. Somehow, the ball cleared the water, sailed directly over the flag stick and came to rest just off the green, 18 feet past the hole.' — Clifton Brown Streaming and betting/odds links in this article are provided by partners of The Athletic.

Edmonton Oilers defeat Florida Panthers in overtime to take Game 1 of Stanley Cup Final
A Canadian team hasn't lifted the Stanley Cup in almost 32 years and now the Edmonton Oilers are one step closer to breaking that drought after defeating the Florida Panthers 4-3 in overtime to take Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday. Leon Draisaitl secured a feed from Connor McDavid and found the back of the net with just over 30 seconds left in the first extra period to send Oilers fans at Rogers Place and the Moss Pit outside the arena into an excited frenzy. Edmonton got off to a fast start with Draisaitl scoring 66 seconds into the game but the defending Cup champ Panthers did not let that keep them down. Sam Bennett and Brad Marchand each scored in a span of two minutes to give Florida the lead. The 28-year-old Bennett added his second goal of the game early in the second period as the Edmonton crowd, once bursting with excitement, was stunned into silence. Despite an Oilers goal just over a minute later, the Panthers found themselves in a familiar spot – holding a lead through the first two periods. Florida, appearing in its third consecutive Cup Final, was 31-0 when holding a lead at the end of the first or second period in the playoffs under head coach Paul Maurice. Edmonton had other plans of handing the 58-year-old Maurice something he hasn't experienced since trading the cold of Winnipeg for the sunny beaches of south Florida three years ago. Defenseman Mattias Ekholm, playing in only his second game back due to injury, tied it with 13:27 remaining in regulation off a perfect pass from McDavid which would eventually force overtime. Both teams traded scoring chances for most of the extra period, but Panthers winger Tomáš Nosek was called for delay of game after putting the puck over the glass with time winding down. With their two best players on the ice for the ensuing power play, McDavid and Draisaitl did what they do best to secure victory for the Oilers. After the game, Draisaitl – despite having a hard time describing the feeling of scoring the game-winner in a Stanley Cup final series – credited his teammates for setting up the scoring chance. 'You are obviously locked in. Especially on the power play, you're looking to finish it,' Draisaitl told reporters. 'Again, some incredible plays that made it pretty easy for me to put that home. It's a special feeling. It's great for right now but we got to look ahead and get read for Game 2.' McDavid, the three-time Hart Memorial Trophy winner, called his teammate Draisaitl 'invaluable' to the team. 'Does so many good things,' McDavid said. 'Clutch, face-offs, you name it, he does it. Doesn't get enough respect or credit for his defensive abilities. When he's dug in, theres not many better – maybe nobody better.' Edmonton's Game 1 victory marks a stark contrast from last year's final. The Oilers fell into a dreaded 3-0 series deficit before clawing back to force a Game 7 where they suffered heartbreak. The Oilers are looking to become the first Canadian team to win the Cup since the Montreal Canadians in 1993 while the Panthers can be become the first team to win back-to-back Cups since their in-state rival, the Tampa Bay Lightning, did so in 2020 and 2021. Game 2 is on Friday before the series shifts to Sunrise, Florida for Games 3 and 4 starting on Sunday.
