    Team USA has done it — they’ve beaten Switzerland 1-0 to win gold.

    It marks the first time since 1933 that the Americans have brought home the gold medal. Over the years, they’ve iced some strong teams, but until now, they hadn’t been able to finish the job.

    San Jose Sharks' Will Smith played a solid game to help secure the win, just days after eliminating his teammate Alexander Wennberg and Team Sweden in the semifinals.

    After 92 years, Team USA finally got it done, and it came in dramatic fashion. The game went to overtime, where Buffalo Sabres forward Tage Thompson fired home the golden goal past Swiss netminder Leonardo Genoni.

    With the tournament now wrapped up, here’s a look at how the Sharks players performed:

    • Will Smith: 0 goals, 7 assists, +8, 10 shots
    • Alexander Wennberg: 1 goal, 3 assists, +3, 11 shots
    • Macklin Celebrini: 3 goals, 3 assists, +9, 20 shots

    Now that Worlds are over, all eyes turn to the NHL Draft, which is set to take place on June 27th and 28th.
