Team North America pulled out a 4-3 overtime over Sweden in its final round robin game of the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.
Unfortunately, by not finishing off the Swedes in regulation, due in large part to a 21-save second period from Henrik Lundqvist, the exciting 23-and-Under team must get help from punchless Finland to advance to the semi-finals.
Florida Panthers center Vincent Trocheck scored his first of the tournament at the 1:35 mark of the first period, 65 seconds after Auston Matthews game-opening goal to give North America a 2-0 lead.
Johnny Gaudreau lit lamp the lamp between goals by Filip Forsberg and Niklas Backstrom to put the North Americans up 3-2 after twenty minutes.
