Andrew Ebbett and Chris Kelly scored twice as Canada beat the Czech Republic to win bronze in men’s hockey at Pyeongchang.
Ebbett opened the scoring 8:57 into the game before the Czechs responded 16 seconds later to make it 1-1.
Canada needed just 15 seconds to re-take the lead, when captain Chris Kelly tipped home Cody Goloubef’s point shot.
Goals from Derek Roy, and another from Ebbett opened up a 4-1 lead for Canada, which medalled for the third straight Olympics.
