The Olympic men's hockey knockout stage is here, as Canada looks to take its perfect record further in the tournament.

Since that game, Canada has won each of it's last two, while Czechia won just one group stage matchup but beat Denmark in the qualification playoffs on Tuesday. However, Czechia has to return to the ice immediately on Wednesday, facing a tall task against the No. 1 seed.
