Jack Hughes‘ overtime goal led Team USA to a win against arch rival Canada in the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics men’s ice hockey gold medal game.
Hughes, 24, of the New Jersey Devils, scored 1:41 seconds into 3-on-3 sudden death overtime to give the Americans their first gold medal in Olympic play since the ‘Miracle on Ice’ team at the 1980 Lake Placid Games. Jack’s brother Quinn was responsible for Team USA’s game-winning overtime goal in the quarterfinals two games prior.
Team USA jumped out to an early lead with Matt Boldy scoring six minutes into the game with a goal assisted by Auston Matthews and Quinn Hughes. Canada’s Cale Makar answered with a second period goal assisted by Devon Toews, who was later stopped by Team USA goaltender Connor Hellebuyck on a would-be go ahead goal in the third period.
Hughes was called for a penalty with less than four minutes in regulation, with Team USA fending off the Canadian power play just before time expired. The Americans defeated Canada despite a 42-28 shots on goal disparity, with Hellebuyck recording 41 saves.
