 BARRIE, Ont. (CP) -- Danielle Goyette and Jayna Hefford scored two
goals apiece to lead the Canadian women's hockey team to a 5-1
exhibition win over Finland on Friday night.
 Stacy Wilson scored the other goal and added two assists for Canada,
while Tiia Reima replied for Finland as both teams prepare for the
world championships beginning Monday in Kitchener, Ont.
 The Canadians, who open the tournament on Monday against Switzerland,
outshot the Finns 40-18.
 Canada has won all three world tournaments since it was first held in
Ottawa in 1990. The top five teams from the eight-team field will
qualify for the Olympic tournament at the Nagano Winter Games in
February 1998.
