<p>Breaking a tie score midway through the opening period, Lowry scored his first goal of the tournament &#8211; and his first during international play, as well. However, upon review, it appeared the puck deflected off one of Slovakia&#8217;s defencemen and completely missed Lowry.</p>
<p>Still, he was credited with the score. With it, the veteran forward handed Team Canada a 1-0 lead.</p>

<p>Later in the game, Lowry, 29, earned a primary assist on teammate @Cole Sillinger&#8217;s second goal of this year&#8217;s event. The marker came at the 1:08 mark of the third period, extending Canada&#8217;s edge to 4-1.</p>
<p>Overall, Winnipeg&#8217;s third-line centre has now posted one goal and four points through three games with Team Canada. He scored 13 goals and 21 points across 79 contests during the 2021-22 NHL season.</p>
<p>As for Dubois, 23, he shined offensively once again and enjoyed another multi-goal performance. That&#8217;s his second of the tournament. Both of his markers came in the middle frame, though, his second score was easily the more impressive one of the pair.</p>

<p>The 6&#8217;3&#8243; power centre battled through multiple defenders, was nearly knocked off possession once or twice and was checked down to the ice before finishing on his stomach for his country&#8217;s third goal of the game. It was a scene eerily similar to the ones that Jets fans witnessed this past season.</p>
<p>Following this stellar showing, Dubois leads all skaters across the event in goals, with four. He also sits tied for the second-most points (five) in the tournament, behind Czechia&#8217;s Roman Cervenka, who&#8217;s scored six.</p>
<p>With this latest victory, Canada remains undefeated with a 3-0-0 record at the 2022 IIHF World Championship. As a result, they currently rank first in Group A with nine points, thanks to a trio of regulation wins.</p>
<p>Team Canada will receive a two-day break in between games before facing Kazakhstan on Thursday at 1:20 p.m. ET.</p>
