Canada wins quarterfinal thriller

 Wow crazy game. Canada barely beats Slovakia 4-3 in overtime to play in the semis to play the United States, who bombed Germany 11-1. Other quarterfinals had Sweden beat Finland 3-2 and Czech Republic beat Switzerland 9-1. Sweden will play the Czechs in hhe other semi final.  Both semis are Wednesday. Connor Bedard had 2g 1a. Bedard: 1. with his first goal passed Jordan Eberle for most goals by a Canadian in a world juniors career with 15. (He has 16 now). 2. The goal also put him at 32 points, passing Eric Lindros for most career world juniors points by a Canadian with 32 (Lindros had 31. Bedard now had 34). 3. He now has 21 points in this tournament,  passing Dale McCourt (1977) and Brayden Schenn (2011) for most points by s Canadian in one tournament. 4. The assist passes Jason Allison fir most assists by a Canadian in one tournament,  now with 13. Allison had 12 in 1995.  Bedard is amazing.
