Canada Makes a Drive for Five

FILE - In this Dec. 5, 2017, file photo, Canada's Laura Stacey (7) falls after a collision with Canada's Emily Clark (26) and United States' Brianna Decker (14) during the first period of a hockey game in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Stacey usually wears a necklace with the No. 7 around her neck that matches the sweater she wears for Team Canada. In her family, it’s much more a tradition than just a number. That’s the No. 7 Hockey Hall of Fame defenseman King Clancy wore playing for the Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs. And the late Clancy, the man who has an annual NHL award named in his honor, is not just an old hockey name to Stacey. He’s her great-grandfather and why Stacey is hoping to add a new chapter to the family’s hockey history chasing Olympic gold for Canada. (John Woods/The Canadian Press via AP, File)
