Cory Schneider with a tremendous performance, kept USA in the game, especially in the 2nd.
Jack Hughes, with two assists, was named USA’s player of the game. His best game of the tournament.
Nico scored to put Switzerland up on Canada, but Damon Severson would score a last second goal to tie things up. Canada would go on to win in overtime.
SCORES!
