MONTREAL - After losing three Olympians to the national team, the 9I制作厂免费 Martlets, their record winning streak and two-year reign atop Canadian university women's hockey looked ripe for the picking this season.

But heading into this week's CIS championship, the Martlets are still riding that streak - now at a whopping 84 games - and remain the team to beat.

"Last year we were expected to win," said Martlets captain Vanessa Davidson, the school's all-time leading scorer. "But this year, losing those players, I don't think people around Canada expected us to continue winning the way we were. So we wanted to prove to everyone that even though we lost two Olympians, we learned a lot from them and we're still a pretty good team."
