Canada edges Sweden in overtime in 4 Nations opener: Live updates and reaction

So, quite a sensational way to start the tournament as Canada wins it in overtime. Keep in mind, though, that’s only two points for Canada, as you can only earn three points in this tournament via a regulation win. Still, I’m sure Canada will take it.

Team USA will take on Finland tomorrow night. The Americans will be fairly heavily favored against banged-up Finland.

Tomorrow will be fun, but let’s be honest, it’s hard not to think about Saturday night already. USA. Canada. In Montreal. Make sure you celebrate Valentine’s Day on the actual day on Friday. Go out to dinner. Have a romantic night. Whatever. Make sure Saturday night is all about hockey, because that has all the makings of being a very special game.

From a Canadian standpoint, however, this night is probably tough to beat, given Crosby’s performance and that Canada won in dramatic fashion. The best news for Canada might be that Connor McDavid was fairly quiet, and Canada still won. One would think he will erupt at some point.
