USA and Canada go down to the wire at the Women's World Championship Gold Medal game
It was another instant classic between rivals Canada and USA, as the two teams battled right down to the final second in a tight Gold Medal game at the 2022 Woman's World Hockey Championships.
The game was a very tight checking through the first period, with only six total shots between the two teams. Canada's Brianna Jenner got her team on the board with two second-period goals, while Abby Roque of the US scored her fourth powerplay goal of the tournament with under a minute to go in the period.
USA came out strong in the third, outshooting Canada 12-6, looking for a repeat of the five unanswered goals they scored in the 5-2 win in the two team's round robin matchup earlier in the tournament. Canadian goaltender Ann-Renee Desbiens was huge in the third, especially in the dying minutes with the US net empty.
