Canada and the United States are entering the final period of regulation in their high-stakes hockey matchup. According to the latest game-time report, there is just one period of play remaining to decide the contest before potential overtime rules take effect.
Per the report, if the score remains tied at the conclusion of the third period, the teams will transition to a 3-on-3 overtime format. This overtime period will be played until a winner is determined by a goal, as there will be no shootout used to decide the game. This format ensures that the outcome will be decided through continuous play until a winner is crowned.
The stakes remain high as the teams prepare for the conclusion of this contest. The game-time reminder clarifies that the wide-open nature of 3-on-3 play will be the deciding factor should regulation end in a draw, with no skills competition available to break the tie. Both teams are now entering the final frame of regulation play.
