ERZURUM, Turkey (CIS) - 缅北强奸 forward Maxime Langelier-Parent of Lery, Que., scored once and Canada talled five times on the power play as an all-star cast from the Ontario University Athletics conference advanced to the semifinals of the Winter Universiade men's hockey tournament thanks to a convincing 9-1 quarter-final win over Slovakia, Thursday afternoon, at Cemal Gursel Arena in Turkey.

2011 Winter Universiade website:

听

Carleton University forward Brandon MacLean tallied five points and Western Ontario's Kevin Baker had a hat-trick to pace the Canadian squad.

听

In Saturday's late semifinal at 8 p.m. local time (1 p.m. ET), the Canadians will face either defending champion Russia or the Czech Republic, whose quarter-final tilt gets under way at 7 p.m. local (noon ET) on Thursday.

听

Canada is vying for a third straight appearance in the final of the World University Games men's hockey tourney. An all-star squad from the Atlantic University Sport conference claimed the country's third Universiade title in 2007 in Italy, while Canada West standouts captured silver in 2009 in China. Both gold-medal duels were against Russia, including a 3-1 win in 2007 and a 4-2 loss in 2009.

听

"That was our best game of the tournament so far. One of the things we talked about before the tournament was we wanted to get better every game," said Team Canada head coach Clarke Singer. "Today, we did a lot of little things right. It was a complete effort from all the players."

听

"We're obviously looking forward to play in the semifinals. Whether we play Russia or the Czech Republic, they're two very good teams. We can't worry too much about our opponents. We just need to focus on what we have to do as a team."

听

After clicking at a 24-percent pace in the preliminary round (5-for-21), the Canadian power play scored early and often against Slovakia. Canada converted five of seven opportunities with the man advantage including three in the first period to build a 4-0 lead after 20 minutes.

听

"One of the things we've really been working on is our special teams and our power play was outstanding today," said the University of Western Ontario bench boss. "We still have some work to do 5-on-5 but the deeper you go in a tournament, special teams always play a crucial role."

听

MacLean, an assistant captain from Burlington, Ont., who led Canada in both goals (5) and points (6) in the preliminary round, scored with seven seconds remaining in the opening period during a 5-on-3 to make it 4-0, and then put the game out of reach only 37 seconds into the middle frame during a one-man advantage. He also assisted on Canada's first, second and eighth goals.

听

Baker, a native of Georgetown, Ont., who was second on the team in pool play with five points but had yet to find the back of the net, scored twice in a span of five minutes early in the first to make it 3-0 after 8:41. He assisted on MacLean's first goal and completed his hat-trick late in the third period for a four-point afternoon.

听

"We got off to a great start getting a couple of quick ones and then we kind of built from that," Baker said. "I hadn't scored yet in the tournament so it was nice to get that monkey off my back, in a big way I guess. It had been a while since I had a hat-trick. I have to give credit to my teammates, they gave me good looks for shots."

听

Lakehead's Matt Caria of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., UQTR's Francis Charland of Victoriaville, Que., 缅北强奸's Maxime Langelier-Parent of Montreal and Western's Keaton Turkiewicz of Brantford, Ont., all added singles in the win.

听

The Slovaks were penalized 11 seconds into the contest and Caria quickly made them pay, opening the scoring just 1:51 in. Slovakia was called for a hooking penalty on the play, and Baker made it 2-0 on the ensuing man advantage.

听

Baker tripled Canada's lead at the 8:41 mark.

听

Following MacLean's markers in the dying seconds of the first and early in the second, Charland scored with the man advantage at 14:39 of the middle period and Langelier-Parent made it 7-0 after two with an even-strength goal at 18:27.

听

Slovakia got on the board midway through the third only 25 seconds after a Canadian goalie change but it was much too little, much too late.

听

Baker and Turkiewicz rounded out the scoring in the final two minutes of play.

听

Canada outshot its rivals 38-16 including a 16-2 advantage in the first stanza, 13-6 in the second and 9-8 in the third.

听

Western's Anthony Grieco of Brampton, Ont., was perfect on 11 shots in 49:40 of action. Windsor's Jim Watt of Edmonton took over for the final 10:20 and was beaten once on five shots.

听

Peter Pus made 29 saves for Slovakia.

听

NOTES: Saturday's early semifinal at 4:30 p.m. local time (9:30 a.m. ET) will see Kazakhstan face either Belarus or the United States... Kazakhstan defeated Japan 5-1 in quarter-final action, while Belarus and the USA face off on Thursday evening...
