The 2016 World Cup of Hockey is only three days in and hockey fans have already witnessed some heart-pounding hockey. Two teams have one in the win column and two have marks in the less popular column, and you know what happens when a team gets two of the latter.
Unfortunately for the players on the ice, this is not like the National Hockey League’s postseason. In the postseason, you can lose two and come back to win the whole series. In an international tournament like the World Cup of Hockey, you lose two games and you find yourself in a position you don’t want to be in.
