Team Canada secures thrilling overtime victory against rival team
It ended with Team Canada serving notice there is no place like home.
After surrendering a two-goal lead in the third period, Team Canada got its act together as Mitch Marner scored the winner in a thrilling 4-3 victory in overtime to play the role of hero.
Led by a three-point night from Sidney Crosby, Canada also got goals from Brad Marchand, Nathan MacKinnon and Mark Stone on Wednesday night.
Overtime was incredible with both teams going toe-to-toe and Marner ended it at 6:06 of 3-on-3 OT.
Moments before Canada stepped on the ice, Lemieux was welcomed into the dressing room by coach Jon Cooper to read the club's starting lineup.
One change we may see in Game 2 against the United States on Saturday is Adin Hill in the Canadian net. Jordan Binnington wasn't at his best, especially in the third when his club needed him the most.
