But that’s not how the Canadian team will feel, however, as multiple missed opportunities cost them a shot at a gold medal. It took a while for things to even up, though, but when they did, Canada wound up on a five-on-three opportuntity partway through the second period. One would count as with just under two minutes left in the second period, Makar didn’t miss twice. It was the second of the game for Canada, as Connor McDavid had one earlier in the game but bobbled the puck. Off the opening draw of the three-on-three overtime frame, Connor McDavid stripped Matt Boldy of the puck for Canada to gain possession.
