Girard's Hat Trick Seals Victory and Player of the Week

Taylor Girard has been named the PWHL Player of the Week after a breakout performance in the New York Sirens' season-opening victory. She netted a natural hat trick in the third period, breaking a scoreless tie and leading her team to a dominant 4-0 win over the Ottawa Charge. This marks a significant improvement from her previous season's output.

Girard's three goals in the final period were not only crucial for the Sirens' win but also set a new league record for most goals scored in a single period by one player. This accomplishment, coupled with two assists from teammate Maddi Wheeler, underscores the Sirens' strong start to the season.

This impressive showing by Girard, who recorded only one goal in 23 games last season, highlights her potential impact for the Sirens. The team now looks to build on this momentum as they prepare for their next matchup against the Montreal Victoire.
