Espoo 2019: Canada shuts out Russia for bronze 7-0
Photo by Gregory Shamus/Getty ImagesSome interesting moves by Canada for this bronze medal game. Geneviève Lacasse, who had the win against Russia in the preliminary round, gets the start with Emerance Maschmeyer backing up. Blayre Turnbull sits after the hit in yesterday’s game and they have er... slotted defender Laura Fortino in on the fourth line? Fortino’s mobile and all but... Frankly if we’re making a defender a forward, I take Renata Fast, who is not nearly as good defensively as Fortino. Meanwhile, Nadezhda Morozova gets the net for Russia.
Canada looks a little tentative to start.
A few shots on Morozova and then icing for the Russians.
