Poulin scores milestone goal as Canada defeats Czechia at women's worlds:
And there was a familiar face behind the Czech bench in coach Carla MacLeod, a former Canadian defenceman who won Olympic gold in Turin in 2006 and — with Poulin — Vancouver in 2010.SIMMONS: Women’s hockey needs to end the great divide
MacLeod, who played for Canada from 2003 until her retirement in 2010, won one gold and three silver medals at the world championships. She went on to serve as an assistant coach for Mount Royal University and Japan from 2012 to 2014 before taking over the University of Calgary women’s team in August 2021.Article content“I thought they made things difficult, for sure,” said Ryan, who said he had expected a prickly foe on the evening.“I’m one proud coach right now,” she said.
Canada, which scored twice on the power play in its opening win over Switzerland, failed to convert three power-play opportunities in a choppy second period. A goal by Turnbull, off a Jocelyne Larocque shot from the point through traffic, was a welcome relief for the Canadians at 18:57 of the period.
Earlier Wednesday, the U.S. downed Switzerland 9-1 in another Group A game with Abbey Murphy scoring a record seven seconds into the game. Abby Roque won the opening faceoff with the puck going to Murphy, who accelerated past forward Sinja Leemann and then drove around defenceman Nicole Vallario before roofing the puck from a sharp angle.Article content
