Canada’s Marie-Philip Poulin breaks Olympic goal-scoring record

Marie-Philip Poulin scored two goals in a 2-1 semifinal win over Switzerland, surpassing Hayley Wickenheiser's record with 20 Olympic goals, leading Canada to the final.

  • On Monday at Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena, Marie-Philip Poulin became the all-time Olympic women’s goal leader with her 19th goal and added a 20th in the semifinal versus Switzerland women's ice hockey team.
  • After sitting out with a knee injury, Poulin returned for Canada quarterfinal vs Germany on Saturday, tying the record and showcasing veteran leadership in her fifth Olympics.
  • Set up by Sophie Jaques, Poulin’s one-timer hit traffic and bounded past Swiss goalie Andrea Braendli, then she buried a rebound minutes later.
  • The 2-1 win sent Canada to a gold-medal game against the United States on Thursday, with Canada seeking a sixth Olympic gold after a seven-game losing streak to the Americans.
  • Now the milestone cements Poulin’s place among Olympic greats as the only player to score in four finals and sets up a potential fourth title in her fifth Games on Thursday.
