UTICA, N.Y. — A PWHL Toronto connection was a key contributor to Canada's 3-0 win over Switzerland on Friday at the women's world hockey championship.
Switzerland was still looking for its first goal of the tournament after two games. Ohio State alum Andrea Braendli stopped 43 of 45 shots after her 51 saves in a 4-0 loss to the United States. Canada caps Group A play with another set of back-to-back games starting Sunday afternoon against Czechia. Canada will play the defending champion United States on Monday.
Ryan wasn't pleased with Canada's execution against the Finns, but was happier Friday with the effort in a tight turnaround. Maschmeyer repelled a late flurry of shots with Braendli pulled for an extra attacker Friday. Canada had a single power-play and held the Swiss scoreless on four chances, including 90 seconds of five-on-three play to start the second period.
When Spooner drove out from the corner to get a shot on net, Maltais was there to pot it 70 seconds after the opening faceoff for her second goal in as many games.
