Connor McDavid scored at 8:18 of overtime to give Canada a 3-2 victory over the United States to win the 4 Nations title.
\"Just to see the reaction. Just to know what it means to us. I know it\'s just a quick tournament, and it\'s not an Olympic gold medal or anything like that, but it means the world to our group, as you can see,\" McDavid said.
\"I hope [the new fans] love it,\" he added. \"It\'s a great game, it\'s a great sport, and I hope we put on a good show these last couple days and gained some fans, ultimately. You can\'t ask for a better show than that.\"
Nathan MacKinnon and Sam Bennett also scored for Canada on Thursday night, while Jordan Binnington stopped 31 shots including the last 20 in a row.
McKinnon was named tournament MVP.
\"A lot of stuff going on with Canada and the USA right now, and us playing against each other was kind of a perfect storm for our sport,\" MacKinnon said. \"It was much more popular than even we would have imagined. It was getting so much attention from our whole continent.\"
