Team history

On 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.[1] A second consecutive championship confirmed their superiority in Quebec women's collegiate ice hockey.[2]
