World Juniors Semifinal: Czechia and Canada Will Go for Gold (The Hockey News)

A wild world juniors Wednesday in Halifax saw Czechia and Canada win their semifinal matchups while Sweden and the USA will compete for bronze.

The Sabres prospect is tied for the team lead in scoring and is the big reason the top-seeded Czech squad is playing for the gold. The Canadian netminder made the easy saves, the acrobatic saves, the desperation saves and everything in between. The Czech squad needed someone to come up and be the hero as they looked to avenge their overtime loss to the same Swedes in the group stage. Josh Roy stripped Luke Hughes of the puck and scored the empty-netter to seal the game. But yet again, the Canadians would challenge, and yet again, the goal would be overturned. He faced nine shots in the first five minutes of the third and stood tall. Shortly after the McGroarty non-goal, Milic had to deal with an American power play, and he was doing everything he could to prevent the U.S. Zach Dean sent a pass to Fantilli, who elevated from in tight and gave Canada the lead. The Buffalo Sabres prospect put the Czechs into the gold medal game for the first time since 2001 and guarantees their best finish since they won bronze in 2005. The only problem was that the puck went over the glass, and Sapovaliv went to the box to give Sweden two full minutes with a two-man advantage. With time winding down, Swedish defenseman Elias Pettersson iced the puck, giving Czechia a faceoff in the offensive zone and the chance to put an extra attacker out. The Swedes opened the scoring in the second period as the Swedish forecheck grabbed the puck and worked it around, with Ludvig Jansson ripping a one-time blast on net, glancing off Suchacek’s shoulder and into the net.
