Team Canada captain Marie-Philip Poulin buried a clutch goal on a penalty shot during Tuesday's matchup against Team USA.

Poulin picked off a pass in the defensive zone while shorthanded before turning on the jets to draw the penalty.

Poulin then beat American goalie Maddie Rooney blocker side.

It marked the first penalty-shot goal in women's Olympic hockey history and proved to be the final goal of the game, as Canada held on for the 4-2 win.
