ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Boston Bruins prospect James Hagens scored twice in a 1:03 span, late in the second period and early in the third, as the United States overcame a two-goal deficit to outlast Slovakia 6-5 on Monday night in the world junior hockey championship.

Hagens, a forward from Hauppauge, New York who was drafted in June by the Boston Bruins at No. 7 overall out of Boston College, tied it at 4 with 45 seconds left in the second, then gave the Americans the lead 18 seconds into the third.
