MILAN – Canada captain Marie-Philip Poulin scored a record-tying goal in her return to the lineup for a 5-1 quarterfinal win over Germany after missing two games in Olympic women’s hockey.
Poulin scored a power-play goal in the third period to put Canada up 5-1. It was Poulin’s 18th Olympic goal, tying her with Hayley Wickenheiser for the record.
She’s scored seven of those goals across four Olympic finals, making her the only player, male or female, to do so.

Poulin injured her right knee when she was checked into the boards by Kristyna Kaltounkova midway through the first period of Canada’s 5-1 win over Czechia on Monday.
The 33-year-old forward sat out Canada’s 5-0 loss to the United States and a 5-0 win over Finland in Group A games.
Poulin took the opening faceoff in Canada’s first-ever Olympic game against the German women.
