Description

The Golden Knights Mitch Marner had his biggest moment on the Olympic stage by potting the game winner in Canada's 4-3 overtime win over Czechia.  Meanwhile, Team USA also escaped a loss by knocking off Sweden in overtime on a Quinn Hughes rocket from the point, 2-1.  Dylan Larkin scored the other goal for the US.  Canada now meets defending champion Finland and Team USA will play Slovakia.  The top four seeds advanced.  These are the same finalists as in 2010 in Vancouver and Sidney Crosby led the Canadians to a 2-1 overtime victory over USA.  VGK's Mark Stone said after Marner's game-winning performance Wednesday that when Team Canada needed Marner most, he made the play.  "So I think it's a Toronto thing," he added responding to negativity about Marner from some Leafs fans.
