The Finns, who had only 17 shots, employed the same defensive structure that nearly brought Canada to its knees against Czechia.

A similar moment allowed for Toronto’s appearance today. On Monday, George Springer delivered the second most dramatic hit in franchise history when he homered with two runners on in the seventh. That bomb gave Toronto the lead in a game it was losing, and w
