Olympic Hockey: USA Vs. Canada Game Thread

Feb 21 6:00p by Brandon Worley

For in-game updates and commentary, visit our SB Nation USA-Canada game stream. 

7:30 PM ET/4:30 PM PT - Canada vs. United States

Live Coverage starts at 7:30 PM ET/4:30 PM PT on MSNBC and NBCOlympics.com

With fans from all over SB Nation and beyond joining forces to root on the United States, or whichever country they prefer, we decided what better place to gather together to discuss the hockey games than right here on SBNation.com.

It's the biggest game of the Olympics so far, as Team USA takes on Canada in a huge Sunday night game in Vancouver. With a win, the United States would complete a surprising sweep in round-robin play and be set up for what could be a magical medal round berth. Standing in their way will be a talented, deep and hungry Canadian team playing in front of a raucous home crowd.

Quarterfinal Implications: If the Canada wins, they will move onto the quarterfinals and the United States would move onto the quarterfinals with a Finland win. If the United States wins, they automatically move onto the quarterfinals while Canada would be relegated to the qualification playoffs.
