Canada had won all three past women's hockey gold medals at the Winter Universiade, but in 2015 in Granada, Spain, it was Russia's turn. Russia beat Canada 3-0 in the final last night.
Russia had beaten Canada 3-1 already in the Group stage so they knew a final game win would be very much possible. The first period saw 25 shots for the teams combined but none that beat goalies Yulia Leskina of Russia or Elodie Rosseau-Sirois of Canada.
The tie was broken at 22:16 when Anna Shokhina scored her sixth goal of the tournament. Shokhina also got the next goal when Russia scored on a powerplay in the fourth minute of period three. Valeria Pavlova made it 3-0 with eight minutes to go and the gold medals were won.
Yulia Leskina made 40 saves for the shutout.
In the bronze medal game Japan beat China 3-1.
