Roybal, Pauls score in second as U.S. beats Canada to win record sixth WSHC
CHARLOTTETOWN — Brody Roybal and Josh Pauls scored under two minute apart in the second period as the United States edged Canada 3-2 on Saturday to win its fourth-straight World Sledge Hockey Challenge.
Josh Misiewicz opened the scoring in the first period for the U.S., which won the tournament for a record sixth time.
Tyler McGregor got the Canadians on the board with a power-play goal in the second period before Liam Hickey added another with the man advantage in the third.
“Anytime you put yourselves down three it’s tough to get back, especially against a team like that,” McGregor said. “We showed a bit of resilience trying to come back. We had a good third, but trying to come from behind the eight-ball like that is pretty tough.
