Definitely not. Drawing the 3rd most talented team in the quarters is not ideal which is why I really don't like seeing upsets like Slovakia beating Sweden early on. 

Sweden's only loss was to Finland which was a bigger upset than Slovakia over Finland. Sweden needed to beat Slovakia by 3 but gave up a late goal to win 5-3.

I really like Oshie on the color commentary.  UND should get him back for a weekend, that would be fun.

Czechia needs to get through the period here 2-2.  Posts on both ends of the rink.

2-2 going to the third.  Czechs kill the rest of this penalty and then its simple play hockey and find a way to get on.

Just started watching. Will Canada start gripping their sticks tight? We shall see 

[sioux rube]

Still tied halfway through the third

Czechs take the lead 3-2 with 7:42 to go

[sioux rube]

And we are tied at 3 with 3:37 to go

Quite a hockey game here.

Not sure 3 on 3 for CZE is gonna work out so well against Canada but who knows.

Canada wins it

3x3 is dumb

Swiss cheese defense 3 on 3.  Brutal.

Yep. Elimination games should be 5 on 5 until someone scores

That was terrible 

[Wilbur]

Heck of a play by Marner to win it.  I'd be in favor of them playing 5x5 until a winner is decided.

McDavid, Makar, Mckinnon out right away in OT....man...oof. 

[sioux rube]

Binnington once again proves he can rise to the occasion because he was tested in that third more than once and in overtime

Apparently the officials missed a lot of too many men calls on the Canadian opponent.
