UTICA, N.Y. — Canada's women intend to be on their toes against a quarterfinal opponent that took them to the brink of elimination in last year's world hockey championship."We all remember that game last year and we've got something to prove," Canadian forward Blayre Turnbull said Wednesday.Finland meets Switzerland at 10 a.m. ET, followed by Czechia versus Germany at 1:30, Canada and Sweden at 5 p.m. and the United States against Japan at 8:30 p.m.
The Canadians lost 1-0 in overtime to defending champion United States to cap the preliminary round Monday with a 3-0-1-0 record. "Those improvements that we need to happen aren't just improvements against the States, they're improvements against every team we play," Turnbull said. "We've had a good talk. It's way too stagnant right now," Ryan said."There's not a lot of movement. I've encouraged them to just get a little bit more freedom, a little bit more creativity.
Maschmeyer stopped 12 of 14 shots in last year's quarterfinal win. Swedish counterpart Emma Soderberg made 51 saves against Canada.
