FRIBOURG, Switzerland (AP) — Captain Macklin Celebrini scored and Canada beat Slovakia 5-1 after a four-goal run in the final period at the Ice Hockey World Cup on Sunday.
Celebrini, John Tavares, Gabriel Vilardi and Ryan O’Reilly all recorded a two-point game for a goal and an assist, and Dylan Cozens also scored in Fribourg to help Canada win its sixth straight Group B match.
Canadian netminder Jet Greaves stopped 31 shots.
Sidney Crosby set up Cozens to give Canada a 1-0 lead on a breakaway with 5:32 left in the opening period.
It was Cozens’ fourth goal and Crosby’s seventh assist of the tournament.
In the middle period, Kristián Pospíšil leveled the score for Slovakia: 1-1.
Canada squandered 1:16 of a 5-3 lead early in the final period, but jumped to a 5-1 lead with four goals at the half.
Vilardi restored a one-goal lead on a power play 2:14 into the period and Tavares later scored a backhand shot 2:40 into the period.
O’Reilly increased the score to 4–1 with a short-handed goal for his fifth at the World Cup 7:36 in and 1:45 later Celebrini scored his third in Switzerland from the top of the right circle.
Canada leads Group B with 17 points and faces the Czech Republic (13 points) on Tuesday in its final group stage match. Slovakia is in third place with 11 points.
In Zurich, Finland made it six wins out of six, beating Austria 5-2 to join Switzerland in Group A with both teams on 18 points. Austria remains third out of nine.
Great Britain was relegated
Great Britain’s return to the Ice Hockey World Cup proved short-lived after Latvia defeated the newcomers 6-0.
The sixth successive defeat in Group A means Great Britain is relegated from the top division with a match remaining.
Great Britain returned to the top level after a year’s absence but failed to win a single point, scoring just four goals and conceding 29 in the six games. Great Britain, who play Germany in their final match on Monday, are three points behind penultimate Hungary but lost their meeting 5-0.
Another newcomer, Italy, still has a chance of survival after gaining the first point in a 3-2 defeat to Denmark in a shootout in Fribourg.
Italy are two points behind Slovenia in Group B before they face each other on Monday.
