- The win put Canada alone atop Group A and clinched a bye to the quarterfinals, moving the team to 2-0 in group play and setting a Sunday finish against France.
- Through two games Team Canada boasts a 10-1 goal differential and looks like a leading gold contender; Macklin Celebrini became the youngest Canadian NHL player to score at the Winter Games with goals in consecutive games.
