Into the second and Canada tied the game up when a point shot was nicely redirected in front by STONE.
Marchessault, who didn't have his best game took a penalty, and as time wound down Mathieu Joseph had a chance to ice the puck in the centre ice but instead tried to make an extra move and rush and gave the Swiss some momentum.
