Les Canadiennes will look to tighten their hold on top spot of the CWHL this weekend when they host the Vanke Rays for three games this weekend, ending with their second Tuesday night game of the season.
Montreal is currently tied with the Kunlun Red Star but have one game in hand. However, the Calgary Inferno are just one point behind with a game in hand on Montreal. Les Canadiennes and Calgary have two more games in Montreal in March to close out the regular season.
