The Canadian team took advantage of these absences to start the game strong. First, Brendan Gallagher took advantage of a turnaround to score his 15th goal of the season. Not to mention, he is the team’s second-best scorer – tied with Nick Suzuki.

Olé Olé Olé was heard after the two goals.
Jake Sanderson didn’t take long to make his mark on the game, having scored against Canada in the final on Thursday.

– Still CH fans in Ottawa.
I just wanted to say I’m proud of Habs fans. It’s been a difficult few seasons, and yet they still show up for home games in droves.
That’s dedication. pic.twitter.com/nHyXysiYQE

– Interesting.
Friedman on Headlines says Canes made an offer to Rantanen during 4 Nations, it was in the 9 digits, it’s a big offer, but Rantanen has said not said yes or no, he’s still processing being traded, wants some time.
