Canada Wins Gold, and Some Other Less Important Stuff too!

Team Canada prevailed 3-2 over the USA in the gold medal final for women’s hockey last night. It was a heck of a game in which Canada never trailed, racing out to a 3-0 lead in the second period, but was nonetheless thrilling until the last second. You may not be surprised to learn that Marie-Philip Poulin scored two goals, including the game winner. She now has three (!) game-winning goals in gold medal games, and seven across her four appearances.
