Marie-Philip Poulin will likely never admit that she’s the best women’s hockey player in the world. She’s just not one to assume credit for anything.
But, as they say, actions speak louder than words. And when the Sportsnet and RDS cameras were rolling this weekend as Les Canadiennes won two games against the Toronto Furies at Complexe Bell in Brossard, Poulin had four goals, two assists and may very well have made the play of the year just six days into 2019. When the lights are brightest, Poulin’s at her best.
Saturday: W 3-1
On a game broadcast nationwide on Sportsnet, Poulin had a natural hat trick in Montreal’s 3-1 win.
