Canada’s Binnington to start must-win game vs. Finland

Canada is sticking with Jordan Binnington in net for its biggest game of the 4 Nations Face-Off.

Canadian head coach Jon Cooper confirmed to reporters on Monday that the St. Louis Blues netminder will make his third straight start on Saturday in a must-win game against Finland.

Over his first two starts of the tournament, Binnington had a .896 save percentage — good for second among the six goaltenders who have played at the 4 Nations and behind only the USA’s Connor Hellebuyck (.957).

With a win in regulation over Finland, Canada secures its spot in the 4 Nations Face-Off final in a rematch with the USA.

More to come.
