She’s described as “one of the greatest clutch performers this country has ever produced.”
And now, Canadian women’s hockey team captain Marie-Philip Poulin has been voted by sports editors and broadcasters as The Canadian Press female athlete of the year.
The 31-year-old forward from Beauceville, Quebec this year became the only hockey player in the world — male or female — to score goals in four straight Olympic hockey finals.
Her two goals paced Canada to a 3-2 win over the U-S for gold in Beijing.
More to come.
