In the 50th all-time meeting between bitter border rivals at the World Juniors, the United States emerged victorious on the eve of a new year.
USA defenseman Cole Hutson and forward Cole Eiserman each scored a goal and an assist in a 4-1 win over Canada on Tuesday night at the Canadian Tire Centre. Three of the Americans’ goals came on the power play, taking advantage of an undisciplined Canadian team that took 11 penalties.
Team USA ends the preliminary round as Group A winners and will meet Switzerland, the fourth-seeded team from Group B, in the quarterfinals. Switzerland defeated Kazakhstan earlier on Tuesday to advance to the quarterfinals. Canada finishes third in Group A and will have a date against Czechia in their quarterfinal matchup on Tuesday.
