After the score of 1-4 to Canada and 4-4 Canada win the WFCQ and are set for the WFC in Switzerland.

The first game of the WFCQ was initially even but in the second period Canada was able to score twice before USA was able to get on the board through Maximus Blanco on a pass by Colin Kenai Aebersold.

Just as Team USA was getting momentum and threatening to tie the game Canada’s Jonathan Kuysten scored two. The final score for the first game was 1-4.

This meant team USA had to win by three in the second game to take It to overtime or by four for an outright overall win.
