This wasn’t the game that many people expected to decide the potential winner of Group A, but after Sweden and Czechia both started with two regulation wins, this game will put the winner in the driver’s seat and both teams have everything to play for. Both teams will be rested, and this should be a fun one. The game will be on TSN 1/3/5 and RDS2 in Canada and NHL Network in the US.
Canada answered a ton of questions with an emphatic 11-2 win over Germany. They will expect a similar result against the Austrians, who appear set for the relegation round unless they can surprise Germany in their final round robin game.
