Canada heads to gold in para hockey

Canada is heading to the Para hockey gold medal game after a hard-fought 4-2 win over China on Friday at the Milano Cortina Paralympics.

Captain Tyler McGregor gave Canada the early spark with two first-period goals, but China battled back to tie it and hand the Canadians their toughest test of the tournament.

In the third period, Dominic Cozzolino scored the go-ahead goal and Liam Hickey added insurance, sending Canada to another showdown with the United States for gold on Sunday.

This final will also make history, marking the first time Canada and the U.S. have met in the men’s Olympic, women’s Olympic and Paralympic hockey finals in the same year.

If you thought the score was satisfying, wait until the commentary kicks in.
