Jamie Lee Rattray scored early and often on Sunday to lead Team Harvey’s past Team Adidas for a 5-1 win at the Professional Women’s Hockey Players’ Association’s Dream Gap Tour showcase in Collingwood, Ont.

The Canadian Olympic gold medallist scored a hat trick with a goal in each period as Team Harvey’s picked up their second win in as many days. The team has won nine straight games for a PWHPA-best 9-1-0 record.

Rattray sealed her three-goal performance late in the third period with an empty netter in Harvey’s easy victory.

Team Adidas mustered just one goal in two games over the weekend, with forward Amanda Kessel scoring midway through the second period on Sunday to bring the game within two goals at 3-1.

Alex Poznikoff scored the eventual winner in the first period, while Hayley Scamurra added the fourth goal for Team Harvey’s with just over four minutes remaining to put the game out of reach.

Team Scotiabank takes down Team Sonnet

Earlier in the day, Team Scotiabank completed a sweep of their two games on the weekend with a 6-1 victory over Team Sonnet.

Abby Roque put Team Sonnet on the board early in the first period with a power-play goal, but Tatum Skaggs responded for Team Scotiabank before the end of the frame.

After Nicole Kosta gave Team Scotiabank their first lead of the game midway through the second period, three-time Canadian Olympic gold medallist Rebecca Johnston scored just 18 seconds into the third to extend the lead.

Both Skaggs and Johnston found the back of the net once more, while Victoria Bach also added a goal during Team Scotiabank’s six-goal run.
