We’ve got our first major upset, folks. It’s going to be hard to top Austria’s 3-2 win over Finland, with Benjamin Baumgartner scoring a goal with 0.2 seconds left in the game to win. Finland controlled the first half of the game, but just like they did against Canada, Austria chipped away until the final buzzer.

At the very least, it’ll help keep their heads above water in the fight to avoid...…We’ve got our first major upset, folks.

We’ve knocked another day off at the 2024 IIHF World Championship in Czechia, and the playoff battle still looks tight. The opening two games were quite one-sided. Germany scored early and often against Latvia, winning 8-1 in a game between two teams that will likely find themselves fighting for a playoff spot. Czechia won 7-4 over Denmark, but the Danes did make it 3-3 early in the final stanza. During the two evening games, neither bout featured high-scoring action. Slovakia skated out to a 4-0 win, while Switzerland beat Great Britain 3-0.
