Winnipeg's Kevin Clark scores twice as Canada advances to Spengler Cup final for 5th consecutive year
32-year-old forward pushes his tournament goal total to 6
Canada is off to the Spengler Cup final for the fifth year in a row.
Kevin Clark, with two goals and one assist, Paul Postma, Chris DiDomenico, Eric Faille and Kris Versteeg scored for Canada (3-0).
The Winnipeg-born Clark now has six goals in the tournament.
"Turku came out hard and challenged us early in the game, but after we scored the first goal I thought our team settled in and started to gain some momentum," Canada captain Maxime Noreau said. "[Goaltender] Zach [Fucale] was great in net and was a very calming presence for our group.
"We are excited to carry this momentum into tomorrow's Spengler Cup final, and work to produce a different end result than last year."
