TCW 1 - 2 - 2 5 Shots 9 - 10 - 21 = 40 Finland 0 - 0 - 1 1 8 - 01 - 6 = 15 The Finns skated well but had difficulty in their own end of the rink with their defensive zone coverages. The first two goals were powerplay goals by Wilson and Goyette. Goyette had a second goal and the remaining two goals were from Jayna Hefford. Lesley Reddon played the first two periods for Canada and Danielle Dube played the third. The Finns need to work on the special teams since one of the Canadian goals was short handed and many of their powerplays resulted in no shots on net. D Page ------------------------------
