Alex Law scored twice, including the overtime winner, as Canada edged Finland 3-2 in a women’s world under-18 hockey championship semifinal Saturday.
ÖSTERSUND, Sweden - Law’s OT winner at 7:32 was first credited to defender Ava Murphy, although it was Law’s wrist shot that sneaked under Kerttu Kuja-Halkola.
“I think we came out a little flat. The Finns came out flying, had a great forecheck going that really took away our speed,“ said Canadian coach Courtney Birchard-Kessel. ”It took us a while to settle in and get our feet under us, but we found a way to win. The Canadians killed off a too-many-player penalty starting at 2:10 in overtime in Saturday’s semifinal. Canada took eight minor penalties in the game to Finland’s one.
Stonehouse scored her second goal of the tournament tipping a Pais shot from the point by Kuja-Halkola at 9:47 of the opening period.
