Team USA’s roster features six Boston College men’s hockey players, forwards Ryan Leonard, Gabe Perreault, James Hagens, and Teddy Stiga as well as defensemen Drew Fortescue and Aram Minnetian. This will be the third meeting between the two programs in this year’s tournament.

Kelowna Rockets forward Jakub Stancl scored the lone goal for Czechia as the Americans took a 4-1 decision and moved on to the gold medal game. Adam Jecho and Miroslav Holinka (Edmonton Oil Kings) combined for three shots, and had some good looks throughout the night.
