Connor Bedard ties team goal record as Canada lights up Austria at world juniors
With the win, Canada sits third in Group A, but one point behind Czechia and two points behind Sweden. A Czech regulation win will give them 10 points, with the result of Canada/Sweden helping to finalize the other two spots in the top three.
Bedard has 27 points all-time at the tournament, putting him four behind Eric Lindros for the team lead.Canada started off slow, but once they finally found a way to break past goaltender Benedikt Oschgan, everything went their way. It all started on the power play at 14:08 when Connor Bedard found Brennan Othmann near the net, who promptly passed the puck between his legs. Dylan Guenther then fired home a one-timer to break the ice after a slow start.
Everything started to fall apart for Austria in the third. Joshua Roy scored 2:37 into the second, and Bedard scored on the very next shift with a snipe that had to be reviewed given how quickly it went in and out. Nolan Allan then scored his first WJC goal two minutes later to make it 6-0.
