Seth Jones wasn’t able to catch Slovakia’s Marko Dano in the scoring race among draft eligibles at the World Junior Championship.
Instead, he and Team USA teammate Ryan Hartman will be leaving with something a little more valuable – a gold medal. Team USA defeated fellow draft eligibes Elias Lindholm and Alexander Wennberg along with the rest of Sweden 3-1 Saturday morning, capturing the tournament title.
Dano led the tournament in both goals (4) and points (9) in six game. Jones’ six helpers in the tournament was tops in assists.
