World Juniors 2018 recap & highlights: Tyler Steenbergen’s late goal gives Canada gold

Tyler Steenbergen played under four minutes in the first two periods, but picked the perfect moment to make his presence felt.

The forward was the final Canadian forward to get a goal in the tournament, and he got the golden goal for Canada with 1:39 remaining in the third period to give Canada a 2-1 lead. Alex Formenton would add an empty net goal to give the Canadians their second gold medal in four years for a 3-1 victory.

It’s Tyler Steenbergen who’s the hero for Canada. Puts them ahead with less than two minutes remaining pic.
