In a thrilling matchup at the Olympic hockey tournament in Milan, Canada emerged victorious against Finland, winning 3-2 to earn a place in the finals. The game saw a dramatic comeback from Canada, who were down by two goals midway through the game. Nathan MacKinnon scored the decisive goal in the dying seconds of the match, completing a power play that turned the tide for the Canadian team. The victory marks Canada as the first finalists in the tournament, aiming for gold after a 12-year hiatus from championship status.

Finland initially took the lead with a goal from Mikko Rantanen in the first period, followed by Erik Haula who extended their lead in the second period during a shorthanded situation. Finally, Canada responded late in the second period, with Sam Reinhart narrowing the gap with a power play goal. The third period saw Shea Theodore equalizing for Canada, setting the stage for MacKinnon's last-minute triumph, clinching the match.

Canada's win sets up a final showdown on Sunday after a long-awaited opportunity to reclaim Olympic gold. Their opponent will be determined by the outcome of the semifinal match between the United States and Slovakia. Conversely, Finland will compete for the bronze medal against the loser of that game, as they aim to redeem themselves following a tough semifinal exit.
