2017 World Championships Group Stage Wrap Up: Mitch Marner, William Nylander, Miro Aaltonen

Switzerland 3 vs. Canada 2 (OT)

Mitch Marner remained on Canada’s top power play unit and on the kid line with Travis Konecny and Brayden Point at 5v5 versus Switzerland. He got it going early on the power play when he found Ryan O’Reilly in front of the net, where the Avalanche forward fought one past Jonas Hiller.

Just two minutes later, Marner received the puck in front of the net and attempted a backhand pass that went off the Swiss defender’s skate into the back of the net.

Opportunities were squandered by Canada throughout the rest of the game before 2013 Leafs draft pick, Fabrice Herzog, scored the OT winner to complete the upset.
