Norway Stuns Canada in OT in Bronze Medal Game to Win Its First Ice Hockey Worlds Medal
- On Sunday, Norway defeated Canada 3-2 in overtime to capture the bronze medal at the world hockey championship, with Noah Steen scoring the winner at the 3:32 mark of the extra session.
- Canada entered the bronze medal game following a 4-2 semifinal loss to Finland on Saturday, extending a three-year streak without a world championship medal.
- Early goals by Emilio Pettersen and Stian Solberg established a 2-0 lead for Norway, but Robert Thomas scored twice in the final 76 seconds of regulation to force overtime as Henrik Haukeland stopped 44 shots.
- Despite a roster featuring NHL stars Sidney Crosby and Mark Scheifele alongside team captain Macklin Celebrini, Canada failed to capitalize on an 18-9 shot advantage, with Jet Greaves making 21 saves in the losing effort.
- The result leaves Canada without a world championship medal since winning its 28th title in 2023, while Switzerland and Finland will meet in the gold medal final later Sunday.
