    Goal for Team Canada!
    This is just insanity now. :16 after the Czechs score, th Canadians tie it right back up. After the initial drive is stopped the puck is fed back to CHARLES HUDON, who blasts it in.

    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    They answer right back again. There's no clear winner of the draw but it's fed back to the point to PETR VRANA, who fires an absolute rocket high to the stick side on Paterson. Power-play goal.

    Goal for Team Canada!
    Canada with the shorthanded goal. First Laughton drove to the net with the puck, it went wide but then came out to AARON EKBLAD, who took a chance and pinched while killing a penalty and it paid off. Assist: Scott Laughton, Curtis Lazar.
     
    44:07
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    The Czechs get control right off the draw and VOJTECH TOMECEK deflects it through the legs of Paterson to put the Czechs back in front.
     
    40:24
    Goal for Team Canada!
    They went to work right away on the power play, Reinhart fed JONATHAN DROUIN at the point, and he fired it high blocker side on Langhammer. Power-play goal, and we'll now play 4-on-4. Assists: Sam Reinhart, Anthony Mantha.
     
    37:16
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    One second after the penalty ends, they cash in. First Ronald Knot centred it out front and somebody hit the post, then it went back to the point and MICHAL PLUTNAR's shot went just under the crossbar. It seemed to change direction so it might not remain his goal, but for now it is.
     
    15:50
    Goal for Team Canada!
    They had trouble getting the power play going but sure got the pressure on in the late going and cash in with :09 left. The puck is moved around the perimeter and Bo Horvat centred in front to SAM REINHART, who snapped it home to tie the score. Power-play goal. Assists: Bo Horvat, Connor McDavid.
     
    07:10
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    The Czechs got possession in the zone when DAVID KAMPF won a battle along the boards and eventually Ondrej Kase fed it back to him in front, and he backhanded it in from the slot along the ice. Assist: Ondrej Kase.
