Anni Keisala and Finland saved their best defensive performance of the tournament for their biggest game.
Keisala and the Finns shut out Switzerland 4-0 in the women's ice hockey bronze medal game, earning the country its fourth medal in the event, all of which have been bronze.
The Finnish goaltender turned aside all 15 shots she faced from the Swiss, while the offense was powered by goals from Viivi Vainikka, Susanna Tapani, Nelli Laitinen, Michelle Karvinin.
