Canada captain Poulin breaks women's ice hockey Games goal
- On Monday at the Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena, Marie-Philip Poulin scored her 19th and 20th goals to become the all-time leader in Olympic women’s hockey during the semifinal versus Switzerland.
- After missing two group-stage games with a knee injury, Poulin returned in the quarterfinal at Milano Cortina and scored her 18th goal to tie Hayley Wickenheiser on Saturday against the Germany women's ice hockey team.
- Set up between the circles by Sophie Jaques, Poulin scored on a one-timer from the top of the zone that bounded past Swiss goalie Andrea Braendli and added a rebound/diving finish minutes later.
- Poulin's second goal gave Canada women's team a 2-0 lead, and the semifinal winner advances to face the United States women's team for gold on Thursday, with defending champions Canada seeking a sixth Olympic title.
- Her legacy is underscored by the fact that `Marie-Philip Poulin` is the only player, male or female, to score in four Olympic finals, with seven goals in those finals.
