USA Edges Sweden in OT, Hughes Delivers Semis Punch
Team USA grinds out a nail-biting quarterfinal win over Sweden in Milan, with Quinn Hughes burying the overtime winner after his brother Jack set up Dylan Larkin's regulation tally. Connor Hellebuyck stands tall with 28 saves, stonewalling point-blank bids from the Swedes who pushed hard late with Mika Zibanejad's equalizer. These NHL stars - from Wild defensemen to Jets netminders and Leafs snipers - remind everyone why the league's best dominate international ice when the stakes climb.
