Canada put eight goals behind the Swiss in the semifinal game before facing the USA tomorrow afternoon. This was a much better result for Canada, who has failed to fully blowout their opponent the way the USA have in this tournament to date. The execution from this game should give them confidence they can beat the Americans after losing to them in the group stage.
The first line combined for three with Marie-Philip Poulin scoring twice and Brianne Jenner getting another, while the second line of Sarah Fillier, Sarah Nurse, and Emily Clark each scored as well. Kristin O’Neill and Jessie Eldridge both scored in the first period for the bottom six in the win.
