We know Canada is in for the Gold game, Finland has locked a spot in the infamous Kiss your Sister Bronze game and the Polocks are eliminated from Championship Night.

If the USA tie or win versus Poland on Friday night they will face off for Gold against Canada and Sweden will go for Bronze.  If Sweden beats Canada on the last night and Poland beats the USA then Sweden will go for Gold and USA will go for Bronze.  All other scenarios will put #5 seed USA in the Gold game and Sweden in the Bronze.

Friday, April 12 early game at 8:15 pm will feature the #1 seed Sweden in a must win game vs the #2 seed Canada.  At 9:30 pm Poland can play spoiler as they face off with the USA squad.  Finland get the week off.
