00:00But Canada wins at 3-2 in overtime in the final in the championship at the Garden in Boston.
00:07Canada got goals from McKinnon in the first period. Bennett in the second tied it up.
00:11McDavid the overtime winner. The U.S. goals Brady Kachug in the first,
00:15Jake Sanderson in the second. McKinnon the tournament MVP.
00:21Matty Kachug played only seven minutes between the first two periods. He's obviously
00:26banged up badly. Connor McDavid is left alone in the slot to bury the overtime winner on Sportsnet.
00:47So McDavid said it meant a lot but he has a lot bigger goals than that.
00:52Yeah obviously it means a lot to our group. You know I think a lot of people were wondering if
00:57you know what this tournament would mean to guys and obviously you can see what it
01:00means to everyone on our side. It was really exciting. I apologize for that. Connor when
01:07you were 13 years old you saw C.D. Crosby your idol sitting across the room as quite a golden
01:12goalie. Now you get to do it for your country. I know you don't want to talk about yourself but
01:16what does it mean to you to deliver for your country in a big moment? Well he's doing it
01:20at the Olympics and this is just a you know kind of a little tournament so we want to do it again
01:25next February. That's what it comes down to. Obviously this was great, exciting you know but
01:33the focus is next February doing it in Italy. I mean it sounded to me like he was in a fishbowl.
01:42That was Connor McDavid in the aquarium. Yeah like in a fish tank like what was that? I didn't know
01:48if that was us or I'm like that's that sounds like he's doing this interview in scuba gear.
01:53I didn't hear one word of it so that was a gigantic colossal mess. Here's Austin Matthews
02:00talking about how big the tourney was for a lot of the guys. Yeah I mean I think this was probably
02:06the biggest game a lot of us have played in. You know you don't get too many opportunities to
02:12to wear these colors to wear this jersey. You know in a winner take all situation so
02:18obviously it's disappointing but I couldn't be prouder of the group. I thought like I said he
02:23competed the whole tournament did everything you know except to overcome many adversities.
02:31You know a lot of good stuff happened but you know obviously sucks to walk away losing end.
02:36I mean somebody's got to lose right in every game so they lost and it is what it is.
02:42So I didn't think that you know they played badly. I thought they you know obviously they
02:48won Saturday night and they couldn't beat them twice. That's how good they were like I said so
02:54it's obviously a bummer when you lose in anything. I hate losing it sucks you never forget it. It
03:00drives you crazy. It's bad for you mentally I'm telling you that much. I have nightmares about
03:06losses title game losses in my basketball career and I've had tons of them and it's just a disaster
03:14winning you barely remember it's the losing that sucks. So the losing hurts way worse than really
03:20the glory of winning like winning you feel excited but it phases like out like it just
03:29it goes away you don't even remember it but you never forget the losses. So I think they'll have
03:33a hard time swallowing that you know what I mean. Oh I do I know what you mean it's like in everything
03:38like I see when we are loose like we lost so many hockey games and like city finals and stuff like
03:43that we lost a triple overtime game we came back and won a quadruple overtime game before but that
03:48lost Scott it affected me for a very long time. I'm like you um I joke around and stuff when it
03:53comes to sports and competition I don't screw around like I I'm I'm all I'm all in and yeah
03:58pisses me off the question is though and the thing you got to do how do you move on from
04:02disappointment and that's the whole thing if I heard disappointment out of Austin Matthews mouth
04:06for every dollar I'd be rich I'd be living on a golf course so we'll see what happens what do you
04:11do after a loss is the key but you're right when you win it's party time and the losses
04:16they'll stick with you but you got to learn from them and grind deeper.
