Brianne Jenner, Emily Clark and Marie-Philip Poulin each scored, and Canada outshot Finland 23-19 to post a 3-1 win on Saturday in exhibition women's hockey action at the Gale Centre in Niagara Falls, Ont.

The teams, getting ready for worlds, missed a number of scoring opportunities and the power-play units looked like they might need some additional work, too, as Canada went 0-for-5 and Finland was 0-for-3.

The teams were scoreless after the first period and Canada led 1-0 heading into the third period. Emilia Vesa scored for Finland.

Canada will open its quest for a third straight women's world hockey championship gold medal against Switzerland on Wednesday at the CAA Centre.
