OTTAWA -- Marie-Philip Poulins four goals in a 13-0 romp over Switzerland on Wednesday equalled a Canadian womens hockey team record for the most goals in a single world championship game. Angela James scored four times in a game twice during her Hockey Hall of Fame career. Current national team assistant coach Danielle Goyette and Laura Schuler also scored four goals in a game during their career. Poulin, from Beauceville, Que., was the first to accomplish the feat since 1994. "For sure, its exciting, but its team play and those goals would not happen without my teammates," said Poulin. The 22-year-old also scored both goals in Canadas 2-0 win over the United States to win Olympic gold in 2010. Canada was minus captain Hayley Wickenheiser and assistant captain Caroline Ouellette for Wednesdays game. Both players were scratched from the lineup prior to the game with upper-body injuries and are said to be "day-to-day." "They just werent ready to go," head coach Dan Church said. "Whether its one or two more days, they need to be 100 per cent to go. "Hayley was a lot better today, but still probably wouldnt be able to go tonight and Carol just needed another day to do some rehab. Hopefully theyll both be back in the lineup for Friday, but we wont know that until probably Friday morning." The defending champions opened the tournament with a 3-2 shootout win over the U.S on Tuesday. The absence of Wickenheiser, Canadas all-time leading scorer, and Ouellette forced Church to be creative with his line combinations. Canadas forwards made the most of their extra ice time. Defenders Meaghan Mikkelson and Tessa Bonhomme played the odd shift at forward. Brianne Jenner scored twice and Jennifer Wakefield had a goal and two assists. Mikkelson, Rebecca Johnston, Natalie Spooner, Sarah Vaillancourt and Haley Irwin also scored, with Jayna Hefford contributing a short-handed goal. Charline Labonte stopped 16 shots for the shutout in front of 6,272 at SBP Arena. "We just wanted to work on our systems and our habits and the things that are going to make us successful if we get to the medal round," Jenner said. "Its easy in games like that to lose focus and kind of move away from our game and maybe play a different style of hockey than we want to." Poulins third goal was awarded after a review. When she backhanded the puck upstairs on Swiss goalie Sophie Anthamatten, Poulin and Hefford raised their arms in celebration, only to watch play continue down the ice. Officials examined the play on the next whistle and awarded Poulin her third goal.dddddddddddd "I think when Jayna Hefford tells you its a goal, I think you absolutely agree with that," Poulin said. Canada topped Pool A with five points ahead of the U.S. with four points. Finland had three and the Swiss zero. The Americans doubled the Finns 4-2 on Wednesday. Canada concludes the preliminary round Friday against the Finns. Russia downed the Czech Republic 3-1 to lead Pool B at 2-0. The Czechs were second at 1-1. Sweden downed Germany 3-2 in overtime to sit third at two points ahead of Germany with one. The top two countries in Pool A get byes to the semifinals while the bottom two face the top two from Pool B in the quarter-finals. The bottom two teams in B fall to the relegation round. Switzerland won bronze at last years world championship in Burlington, Vt., for that countrys first medal in tournament history. Goaltender Florence Schelling can take much of the credit for that medal, but she did not play against Canada. The Swiss are saving her for games they need to win later in the tournament to preserve their ranking. Anthamatten started strong in net and the Swiss attempted an aggressive forecheck. They were eventually worn down by Canadas superior size, speed, fitness and puck possession skills. Canada outshot the Swiss 79-16. "We knew before theyre stronger, theyre faster and we said "well go shift by shift for 60 minutes," Swiss captain Julia Marty said. "Obviously youre disappointed if you give up 13 goals. "The first 20 minutes went well. Ive played Canada a couple of times and I thought wed never played that well. Now that we can keep it up for 20 minutes, our next goal is to keep it up for 60 minutes." Anthamatten, 21, was replaced by Dominique Slongo with less than four minutes remaining in the game. Its the worst beating Canada has given the Swiss in five world championship meetings, but Church did not want his players taking their foot off the gas until the final buzzer. "Are we supposed to try and aim for goalposts? Were not trying to embarrass them. Were trying to get better," Church said. "If we take a period off, I dont think it helps us and I dont think it helps the game. "Should Usain Bolt ease up at the 50-metre mark? I dont know how you do that and become as good as you can. We want to be as good as we can and I dont think we should apologize for that." Added Jenner: "Were here to defend our gold medal, really. We cant really worry about what people are going to say about our game too much." ' ' '
