Canada Avoids Scare to Stop Czechs

It was a lot closer than most likely expected, but Canada managed to erase a 3-1 deficit to win 6-3 over Czechia to finish the day in Edmonton.

Owen Power was the highlight of the game, becoming the first Canadian defender to record a hat-trick after doing so through 30:15 of play. The Buffalo Sabres prospect skipped the tournament last year due to travel concerns, but is expected to play a crucial role throughout the 2022 edition.
