Olympic wake-up call: Canada wins hockey gold, 'Big Air Mar' races to silver in ski cross

Canada is on top of the women's hockey world after a thrilling 3-2 win over the United States in the Olympic gold-medal match at the 2022 Beijing Olympic Winter Games on Thursday.

Captain Marie-Philip Poulin scored twice, Ann-Renée Desbiens made 36 saves, and Sarah Nurse broke the record for the most points in a single Olympic Games, as Canada avenged its 2018 loss to the Americans.

"It's just so good. It's a great feeling. It was one hell of an effort," Poulin said, who scored her third Olympic gold medal-winning goal. "This is redemption."

Marielle Thompson won a silver medal in the women's ski cross, earning her second career Olympic medal in the event.

The 29-year-old from Whistler, B.C., got off to a slow start in the final but stormed back near the end of the race, making a daring pass on the final turn to keep Canada's Olympic medal streak alive in the event.

Since ski cross was added to the Olympic programme at the 2010 Games in Vancouver, Canada has never missed a podium in the women's event. Thompson won gold at the 2014 Games in Sochi.

Fellow Canadians Courtney Hoffos, Hannah Schmidt, and Brittany Phelan — the Olympic silver medallist in 2018 —  all raced in the small final, after failing to advance from the semifinal races.
