It's been Finland's year. And, as the only undefeated team at these World Championships, they're now one win away from claiming yet another title - all while being led by the expected second overall pick of the upcoming NHL draft.
In their way stands Canada. But of course, in their way stood Canada in the last game of the preliminaries, when both teams were fighting for the top of Group B: and Finland wiped the floor with them, winning 4-0 and ending Canada's own unbeaten streak.
At 11:45 a.m. MT, they meet up for one more game.
