# Cégep Édouard-Montpetit Lynx women's ice hockey

The Lynx du cégep Édouard-Montpetit women's ice hockey team, previously Lynx du Collège Édouard-Montpetit, represents Cégep Édouard-Montpetit in the Hockey collégial féminin RSEQ of the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (RSEQ). The team is based in Longueuil, in the southern Greater Montreal metropolitan area in Quebec and their home venue is the Aréna Émile-Butch-Bouchard.

## Team history

In April 2004, the Ligue de hockey féminin collégial AA announced that two new women's hockey teams would debut for the 2005–06 season. The Lynx were founded in the autumn of 2004. In 2009, the Lynx gained their first prominent attention when they eliminated the Dawson Blues in a 2009 playoff as they claimed their first championship. A second consecutive championship confirmed their superiority in Quebec women's collegiate ice hockey.
