While there will be two games on the docket on Friday, for Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brandon Hagel, he'll have his focus strictly on the task ahead for him and his countrymen. Hagel and Team Canada will face off against Finland in Friday's matinee game to determine which team will compete for the gold medal, and which will have to fight for the bronze.
Canada avoided disaster against Czechia, as with five minutes remaining in regulation it seemed entirely possible that they were going to be heading home in the quarterfinal. A late goal and then a winner in overtime solidified their spot in the semifinal, but the competition is only going to get tougher from here.
For Hagel, he's scored just a single goal in his four Olympic appearances which came against France in a 10-2 victory for Canada.
