The United States has already locked in a spot for Wednesday's final, but their opponent is still up in the air. The showdown between Canada and Finland could settle it—if either team secures a regulation win, they'll advance to face the Americans. However, if the game stretches into overtime, it leaves the door open for Sweden, who could sneak into the final with a regulation victory over the United States.
Should the opening game go beyond regulation and Sweden fails to beat the U.S. in 60 minutes, the winner of the first matchup—regardless of overtime—will secure the last ticket to the championship game.
Canada team news
Falling to their fiercest rival in one of the most eagerly awaited clashes in recent memory will undoubtedly sting for every player on Canada's roster. However, it was a tightly contested battle that easily could have swung in either direction.
Heading into the tournament, the United States was widely believed to have a decisive advantage between the pipes, and Connor Hellebuyck proved that theory right. The American netminder outshined his opposite number, Jordan Binnington, and that proved to be the deciding factor in Saturday's showdown.
Despite the loss, Canada had the upper hand in several key statistical categories, outshooting the USA 26-23. They also created more high-danger scoring chances, generated a greater number of shots from the inner slot, and ultimately finished with a higher expected goals total.
It remains to be seen whether Canada will turn to Adin Hill for this matchup, as no official starter has been announced at the time of writing. Given his superior form at the NHL level this season, there’s a strong case for him to get the nod. Meanwhile, it's hard to argue that Jordan Binnington has done enough to cement his grip on the starting role.
Hill has posted a +8.8 GSAx and a .900 save percentage across 34 appearances for the Vegas Golden Knights this season. Like Binnington, he boasts a Stanley Cup ring, having played a pivotal role in the Golden Knights' championship-winning campaign in 2022-23. Canada was dealt a significant setback on Saturday, with Cale Makar sidelined due to illness. However, he is expected to make his return to the lineup on Monday.
Filling the void left by Makar is no easy feat, but Thomas Harley stepped up in impressive fashion. The young blueliner was arguably Canada's top defenseman on the night, handling the pressure of a last-minute call-up exceptionally well. His performance certainly warranted another opportunity, though he won't be eligible for Monday's clash.
