Rattray scores shootout winner as Canada survives U.S. in timeless finish

Jamie Lee Rattray scored the shootout winner, and Canada survived a wild U.S. comeback to win 4-3 at the women's hockey world championship on Monday.

The Canadians appeared headed to an easy win after Laura Stacey scored an empty netter to put the team up 3-1 win just over two minutes remaining.

But, of course, games between these two can't end without drama. And so cue the dramatics.

Soon after Stacey's goal, American Hilary Knight scored to cut the deficit in half, only there was one problem: the scoreboard had stopped working.

After an even longer wait, the refs emerged from the video booth and signalled that the goal counted. On the scoreboard, the time was changed to 39 seconds.

That was all the Americans needed. Amanda Kessel tied the game with 3.5 seconds left, stunning the CAA Centre crowd and sending the game into OT.
