The Toronto Sceptres are getting star forward Sarah Nurse back in their lineup for Sunday afternoon's game against the Montréal Victoire.
Nurse was activated from the long-term injured reserve on Sunday morning after suffering a lower-body injury on Feb. 6 while playing for Team Canada during their annual Rivalry Series against the United States.
The 30-year-old native of Hamilton has five goals and seven assists in 15 games with the Sceptres this season.
Rookie forward Noemi Neubauerová was placed on the Reserve Player List in a corresponding move.
Toronto ranks third in the PWHL with 39 points through 24 games while Montreal sits in first place with 45 points in 24 games.
