CAN – JPN 4-1 (1-0, 2-1, 1-0)
Another victory for Team Canada which is getting closer to that gold medal. Not an easy game for the Canadians, as they only managed to open the score at the end of the first. Kikuchi (JPN) goes to the penalty box for a minor penalty and Canada uses the powerplay efficiently as Boras drills the puck into the net passed Eri Kiribuchi. In the second Canada scores twice but Japan clings on and Okazaki put a one on the scoreboard for Team Nippon. In the last period Newton scores Canada’s fourth goal.

A very tight game at the beginning which the Canadians could turn in their advantage leaving the ice with a 2-1 on the scoreboard after the first period.
