Team Finland, the Men's 2022 gold medal winners, captured bronze with a convincing 6-1 win over upstart Slovakia. Sean Gentille and Sean McIndoe couldn't help but wonder if Finland would have had more success at the tournament if they had difference maker Aleksander Barkov in the lineup and Sean and Sean take a look at the gold medal matchup between Canada and the United States, slated to begin at 8:10am ET Sunday morning.
