Three-time gold medal winner Jason Zucker drafted 59th overall by Minnesota Wild who traded picks to move up for him. He and Jack Campbell are the only players to ever win three golds for the USA in IIHF competition.

Team USA features two players who have already won gold at both the 2009 Under-18s and the 2010 World Junior Championship – Jack Campbell (previous blog gallery) and Jason Zucker (previous blog gallery).  Campbell earned the shutout in today’s win while Zucker had two goals.

Three others won gold at the 2009 Under-18s: – Adam Clendening, Jon Merrill (previous blog gallery) and Matt Nieto.  All three had an assist in the game.

Bryan Rust (previous blog gallery) is looking for his first gold and scored two goals in the game.

Was hoping to get a gallery finished & related sibling post up today, but looks like I won’t finish until tomorrow so copying a little from yesterday, but substituting the University of Denver for Michigan.
