Women’s Hockey Wednesday: 4 Nations Cup begins!
Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty ImagesThe 4 Nations Cup tournament began yesterday in Saskatoon. The end results were pretty much as expected - Canada and USA won, Sweden and Finland did not. However, there were still points of interest about both games.
USA 5 - Finland 1
From all accounts Team USA had a bit of a slow start. Not only did Finland get on the board first, the puck went in off an American defender. Emma Nuutinen got the goal, with assists from Tanja Niskanen and Nelli Laitenin.
USA still outshot Finland in the first period but it was 9-3, which is not the shot volume you expect from them.
