USA Storms Past Slovakia, Advances to Olympic Gold vs Canada
Team USA built a 5-0 lead over Slovakia through two periods in the Olympic men’s hockey semifinal, with Jack Hughes and Jack Eichel leading the scoring surge. Tage Thompson is out to start the third period as a precaution, while the U.S. looks to close out and advance to the gold-medal game against Canada. A Guentzel goal was disallowed for kicking motion, and the Americans’ penalty kill has been stout as they protect the lead.
