    67:31
    The call is Hilary Knight for cross-checking, but both Wickenheiser and Canadian coach Kevin Dineen, and probably most people watching can't believe this isn't a penalty shot. In any event, it's a 4-on-3 power play for Canada for :29.
     
    66:09
    Fry circles the Canadian net, centres for Schlaper for the one-timer and she's hit hard while digging for the rebound. Penalty to Canada coming. Catherine Ward for cross-checking.
     
    40:07
    Right off the start of the 3rd period we're getting a penalty, Tara Watchorn for tripping, as he upended Carpenter near the blueline. Power play for the US.
     
    34:14
    Play is now stopped and the call is on Anne Schleper for cross-checking, so Canada now with a golden opportunity to tie this game, with a 5-on-3 advantage for :32.
     
    32:45
    It seems we're now getting an American penalty on the play, but I'm not sure if it was for a collision behind the net or possibly too many players on the ice. There's a discussion now.

    The call is, indeed, too many players on the ice, so Canada goes to the power play with a chance to tie this game.
     
    27:10
    Play is now stopped as the puck is pinned against the boards in the US zone.

    The US is getting a penalty on the play, Kelli Stack for hooking, so Canada to their third power play.
     
    15:30
    First Brianna Decker rips a slapper wide, then the puck rings around the boards and Haley Irwin tries to break in shorthanded but is held up by Kacey Bellamy, who is called for holding and ends the power play.
     
    14:04
    USA going to the power play for the third time now, Tara Watchorn for tripping.
     
    08:01
    The Americans had the pressure on but now they take a penalty, as Hillary Knight knocks down Jayna Hefford in the Canadian zone and is called for cross-checking.

    We'll play 4-on-4 for :13, then Canada will go to the power play for the first time.
     
    06:13
    Canada's getting another penalty as Meaghan Mikkelson is called for knocking Alex Carpenter down in front of the US bench. Canada with a physical start to this game but they're going to have to kill off their second penalty.
     
    02:01
    We're getting the games first penalty, and it's Canada's Tara Watchorn for throwing a bodycheck on Megan Bozek. USA to the early power play.
