Canadian Women Win 4 Nations Tournament

When you combine my two favorite things in this world, you can sure bet that I'm interested!

On November 6th, the Women's Team Canada defeated the Women's team USA in the Four Nations Tournament. The ladies from USA were outmatched because they only had only 9 players return from the Salt Lake Olympic team to Team Canada's 16. Goaltender Kim St. Pierre made another outstanding performance worthy of her predecesor Manon Rheaume by stopping 26 shots and 6 powerplays. The games are being held in Kitchner, Ontario and surprisingly the USA vs. Canada tournament game was played in front of 5,371 fans Kitchner Memorial Auditorium.

The other two teams involved in the tournament are sports international rivals Sweeden and Finland.
