Small news during the Stanley Cup, but huge news in womens hockey.

Finland just upset Canada 4-2 in the World Championships, in Finland, for a place in the final.

It's the first time Finland reaches the final in either World Championships or the Olympics, and the first time Canada doesn't reach the final. It's also the first time the World Championship final is not between USA and Canada. (Sweden once reached the final in the Olympics.)

Shots were 45-19 for Canada.

USA and Russia meet later today to decide the other finalist.
