Ringette Canada​ – Mississauga, ON December 2, 2017 – Team Canada juniors are good as gold again after defeating Finland 9-6 in game two of the best two out of three game series at the 2017 World Ringette Championships today. The defending world champions made an amazing comeback in the second half to claim the world title.

Assistant captain Sydney Nosal (St. Clements) notched a hat trick and three assists and was named player of the game for Canada. Winnipeg’s Alana Lesperance and Moncton’s Britney Snowdon both picked up pairs, with singles coming from Marie-Pier Blanchard (Ste-Julie, QC) and Moncton’s Jenny Snowdon scoring the game winner. Event awards were handed out following the game, with Jenny Snowdon being awarded MVP for the junior pool and Boucherville’s Laurie St-Pierre was named MVP for Canada.

“It is such a surreal experience,” said Sydney Nosal following the win. “We battled and worked hard and we regrouped at the half. We played our style of game and came together as a team.”

Going into today’s game down by one, the Canadian senior team put forth a hard-fought battle but were not able to force the best two out of three series to a final game. The defending world champion Finns claimed their sixth consecutive world title, defeating Canada 11-5.
