Austria 2 - Latvia 4
Vinzenz Rohrer's tournament with Austria came to an end in Game 2 of his country's best-of-three relegation round series against Latvia. The Austrian captain earned the primary assist on the first of the Eagles' two late tallies, but they were not enough to overcome a 4-0 deficit and a relegation round sweep following Monday's 5-2 loss. Rohrer heads home with three points (1G-2A) in five games; Austria meanwhile will drop to the Division I, Group A tournament in 2024.
Czechia 2 - Sweden 1
Adam Engstrom and Sweden will need to battle for bronze on Thursday if they are to finish with a medal following an overtime loss to Czechia in Wednesday's first semifinal. Engstrom fired two shots on goal over 19:01 of ice time in a game which saw the Swedes nearly carry a 1-0 lead into the final, before the Czechs found the equalizer with 39 seconds left in regulation. Buffalo Sabres prospect Jiri Kulich tallied 9:10 into the extra frame to send Czechia to the gold medal game.
USA 2 - Canada 6
Lane Hutson and the Americans fell 6-2 to Joshua Roy, Owen Beck and Team Canada in Wednesday's second semifinal. The visitors jumped out to an early 2-0 lead, but that was all they would get before Canada replied with six unanswered tallies on home ice. Roy potted a pair of goals in the contest, including one in an empty net to bring his tournament total to five.
