MILAN — Marie-Philip Poulin has given Canada plenty of golden moments over her historic career at the Olympics. On Monday night in the semifinals against Switzerland, Poulin made history, scoring her 19th career goal at the Olympics, passing Hockey Hall of Fame forward Hayley Wickenheiser in career goals at the Olympics. Then she added another — for 20 career goals — to lead Canada to a 2-1 win, setting up another Olympic gold medal game against the United States. And I don’t think there’s anyone more deserving.”Team Canada’s road through this women’s hockey tournament has been anything but smooth. After a scoreless first period, it was Poulin who finally broke through with the first goal of the game, breathing life into Team Canada.
