A regulation win over Team Finland will punch Team Canada’s ticket to the 4 Nations Face-Off Final against Team USA (1:00 p.m. EST, Sportsnet/TVA Sports).
The stakes:
– A Team Canada regulation win over Team Finland clinches a spot in the final
– An overtime/shootout win means Team USA must claim at least a point from Sweden in tonight’s game (8 p.m. EST) for Team Canada to advance to the final
– A loss of any kind eliminates Team Canada from the 4 Nations Face-Off
