02/22 09:41 CST US and Canada go to overtime tied 1-1 in the gold medal game at the Olympics US and Canada go to overtime tied 1-1 in the gold medal game at the Olympics By STEPHEN WHYNO AP Hockey Writer MILAN (AP) --- Sixty minutes of fast-paced, back-and-forth hockey was not enough to settle gold for the U.S. and Canada. The teams went to overtime in the men's gold medal hockey game at the the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics on Sunday with the score tied at 1-1. Teams play sudden-death 3-on-3 OT in the final, with rules changing as the tournament progresses. The U.S. led six minutes into the game on Matt Boldy's highlight-reel goal until Cale Makar tied it late in the second period. The Canadians tilted the ice toward Connor Hellebuyck, who was brilliant in net, stopping 40 of the 41 shots he faced in regulation. There were plenty of chances for each team to win the final. The U.S. had more than three minutes of power play time past the midway point of the third after Sam Bennett high-sticked Jack Hughes, who then high-sticked Nick Suzuki to give Canada the same advantage. With Hellebuyck locked in, the U.S. improved to 18 for 18 on the penalty kill in the tournament. Canada is playing without injured captain Sidney Crosby. ___ AP Winter Olympics: https://apnews.com/hub/milan-cortina-2026-winter-olympics
