The Canadians will face off against the Czech Republic,

which finished fourth in Group B but pulled off one of the biggest upsets of the preliminary round when it beat the Russians 2-0.People don't give enough credit to the Czechs," Canada head coach Andre Tourigny said. "[They] were in the pool with the U.S., Sweden and the Russians, they have only two players on their full roster who are not in the plus. Everybody else is even or plus. That's playing against the elite opponent night after night, so that shows how good they were at 5-on-5. . . . It's important to first not give them the chance to get them on their power play and then the second is to make sure we know how good they are at 5-on-5. They're a really good 5-on-5 team. An elite country. So we need to make sure we are humble and we go into that game knowing full well it will be a tough match."

Canada's offense has been rolling even while going through the adversity of putting double-digit shots on net but not scoring. Through four preliminary games, every skater has registered a point led by Dylan Cozens. One of six returnees from the 2020 gold medal-winning squad, Cozens has potted 11 points (six goals, five assists) and is tied for the goal-scoring lead in the tournament with American Trevor Zegras.
