Team Canada won it’s 3rd consecutive gold medal, their first on European ice since 1997, in Geneva, Switzerland.

Teams would receive 3 points in regulation, while teams wining in overtime would receive 2 points, and teams losing in overtime would receive 1 point. If the game remain untied after overtime, an NHL-style shootout with 3 skaters instead of 5 would be held.
