FRIBOURG, Switzerland (AP) — Mark Scheifele completed a hat trick by scoring 29 seconds into overtime to give Canada a 6-5 victory over Norway at the ice hockey world championship Thursday.

Ryan O’Reilly scored with 1:39 left in regulation to force overtime by redirecting Macklin Celebrini’s shot from the blue line into Norway’s net.

Scheifele netted twice in the first period after Norway had built a 2-0 lead on goals from Eskild Bakke Olsen and Johannes Johannesen.

The Winnipeg Jets center, who amassed a 103-point regular season in the NHL, scored his first while falling to the ice and made it 2-2 with a slap shot with 2:10 left in the opening period.

The teams traded goals in the second period. Norway took the lead on Noah Steen’s power-play goal before Gabriel Vilardi evened it at 3-3, also on a power play.

Dylan Cozens put Canada ahead 31 seconds into the third with a short-handed goal.

But Steen and Tinus Luc Koblar scored less than two minutes apart to give Norway a 5-4 lead, setting up O’Reilly’s tying goal that came shortly after Canada pulled goalie Cam Talbot for an extra attacker.
