ALLEN — Jack Ivankovic stopped all 24 shots he faced as Canada blanked Slovakia 4-0 on Friday in the semifinal of the men’s under-18 world hockey championship.

Cole Reschny and Jack Nesbitt each had a power-play goal in the third period for Canada.

Xavier Villeneuve opened scoring in the second and Ryan Roobroeck added some insurance with an even-strength goal with two minutes left to play.

Canada will face either Sweden or the United States for gold on Saturday.

Michal Pradel made 35 saves for Slovakia.
