Sceptres activate Nurse from LTIR
The Toronto Sceptres activated forward Sarah Nurse from long-term injured reserve ahead of the team's contest against the Montreal Victoire, the team announced Sunday.
Nurse sustained a lower-body injury on Feb. 6 while competing with Team Canada at the Rivalry Series. She missed nine games due to the ailment.
The 30-year-old has five goals and 12 points in 15 games this season after finishing second in PWHL scoring with 11 goals and 23 points in 24 contests last season.
Nurse was named to Canada's World Championship roster Friday.
Sunday's game against the Victoire will mark the first time Toronto has had a fully healthy lineup all season.
The Sceptres placed forward Noemi Neubauerova on the team's reserve list in a corresponding roster move. The rookie has zero points in 20 games.
Toronto is third in the PWHL with 39 points.
