Canada Triumphs in International Para Hockey Cup Opener
Canada’s para hockey team made a strong start at the International Para Hockey Cup, securing a 2-1 victory over host Czechia. The team showcased resilience, scoring two crucial goals in the third period. Auren Halbert from Calgary and Mathieu Lelievre of Levis, Quebec, were the goal scorers, while Adam Kingsmill of Smithers, British Columbia, delivered an impressive performance in the net, stopping 10 shots.
This win sets a positive tone for Canada, especially as they prepare to face the United States in their next match. The upcoming game is a highly anticipated rematch of this year’s world championship final, where Canada emerged victorious with a 6-1 win in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, on June 4. The United States, holding the title of reigning Paralympic champions, will undoubtedly be a formidable opponent.
