Sarah Nurse scores overtime winner as Canada survives scare with 3-2 win over Sweden at women’s world hockey championship
Sarah Nurse scored her second goal of the game at 4:26 of overtime as Canada picked up a nervy 3-2 victory over feisty Sweden on Thursday to advance to the semi-finals at the women’s world hockey championship.Emerance Maschmeyer registered the victory in goal after No. 1 option Ann-Renee Desbiens made 26 saves in Monday’s 4-3 shootout victory over the United States to secure top spot in Group A.
The U.S. is set to meet Czechia in the other semi-final. The Americans beat Germany 3-0 in the quarters Thursday, while the Czechs topped Finland 2-1. The Canadian forward took a pass at her own blue line and sped through the neutral zone before blowing past a couple of Swedes and slipping a backhand five-hole on Soderberg.
With Sweden trying to kill off the final seconds of Olsson’s infraction, Nurse fired the puck upstairs on Soderberg for a 2-0 lead. Fillier came close to making it 3-1 with five minutes left in regulation, but the puck stayed out to keep the encounter on a knife edge despite the Swedes offering almost nothing in attack at even strength.
