Simulating Canada vs. Switzerland in NHL 24 A significant matchup on the World Championship schedule in Group A takes place tomorrow in Prague, Canada versus Switzerland. Both teams sit in a tie for second in the group with a 4-1 record. Switzerland holds the better goal differential with a plus-16 compared to Canada's plus-12. Our last simulation for the World Championship series incorrectly predicted the winner between Canada versus Finland [https://thehockeynews.com/gaming/latest-news/canada-vs-finland-world-championship-prediction]. The lineups we used are the ones both Canada and Switzerland ran in their last game. Head Coach Andre Tourigny could go with Joel Hofer in net since Jordan Binnington played yesterday against Finland. But we kept Binnington in the crease seeing as this is a critical game in regards to group seeding. Note: We adjusted Switzerland's lines to even out the overall disparity. Also, Kevin Fiala wasn't on the roster for the simulation due to him being a late addition and not being moved to the Swiss roster in NHL 24's latest roster update by EA. Team Canada must have found the leprechaun at the end of the rainbow as they found some luck to win this game 3-2 via their second and third goals going off of a Switzerland player and into the back of the net. Pierre-Luc Dubois broke the game's deadlock in the second period when he was sprung on a short breakaway by Brandon Hagel. Nico Hischier brought the Swiss within one goal with under three minutes to play, but Colton Parayko scored one of those lucky goals with his point shot directing off of Jonas Siegenthaler and in. Calvin Thurkauf added a goal with 12 seconds left but there just wasn't enough time for the Swiss to get a third and tie the game.
