World Juniors Scores On Day 4 Of WJC 2024 Group Play In Sweden ...

Day 4 of the IIHF World Junior Championships on Dec. 29 in Sweden was highlighted by an overtime shootout between USA and Czechia. Later in the day, Canada was upset by host nation Sweden in a low-scoring affair. 

Goaltender Jacob Folwer and forward Isaac Howard played the heroes in a big win for the Americans.

World Junior Overtime rules dictate that, while in group play, a five-minute overtime period of 3-on-3 will be played. If at the end of the overtime period the game is still tied, the teams will enter a shootout. 

It took seven rounds in the shootout before Team USA clinched the win on a goal by Isaac Howard. Overall, the Americans scored two goals in the shootout to Czechia's one goal.
