MILAN – Canadian women’s hockey captain Marie-Philip Poulin was scratched from the lineup in an Olympic women’s hockey game against Finland.

Poulin wasn’t expected to play after sustaining a lower-body injury early in Monday’s 5-1 win over Czechia.

The leading active scorer in Olympic women’s hockey also sat out Tuesday’s 5-0 loss to the United States.
