16:15 drar det igång med Finland vs Kanada samt Ryssland vs Norge. Senare ikväll(20:15) spelar Tre Kronor mot Tjeckien och hemmanationen Slovakien ställs mot USA.
Nytt för i år är att man har tagit bort straffläggning i finalen och O.T ska istället spelas 3 vs 3 tills det blir avgjort. Det andra är semifinalerna, istället för ett klart slutspelsträd kommer lagen att rankas utifrån resultaten i gruppspelet, ettan kommer att möta fyran och tvåan möter trean.
Alla matcher kan streamas på Viaplay, SVT sänder mycket, vissa på svt-play.
Finns det nån regel för hur länge O.T får fortsätta om det inte blir nå mål? 1 timme 2 timmar? Tills publiken tröttnar?
Nej, det spelas tills det blir mål som sagt. Men iom att det är 3 mot 3 så bör det inte ta längre än en vanlig period. Detta gäller alltså enbart finalen, i gruppspel, kvart och semi finns straffläggning fortfarande kvar.

Overtime Operations
If a game is tied at the end of regulation time, a five-minute overtime period shall be played after a three-minute intermission. The teams will not change ends for the overtime period. The game will end when the five minutes have expired or when a goal is scored; the scoring team will be declared the winner. If no goal is scored in the overtime period then the Penalty-Shot Shootout Procedure will apply. All overtime periods of any IIHF preliminary-round or round-robin game shall be played with each team at the numerical strength of three (3) skaters and one (1) goaltender for games of the preliminary round.

Penalty-Shot Shootout Procedure
If no goal is scored in the overtime period then the Penalty-Shot Shootout (PSS) procedure will apply. The following procedure will be utilized:
Five different shooters from each team will take alternate shots, until a decisive goal is scored.
If the game is still tied after five shots by each team, the PSS will continue with a tie-break shoot out by one player of each team, with a reversed shooting order. The same or new players can take the tie-break shots.
The same player can also be used for each shot by a team in the tie-break shoot-out.
Only the decisive goal will count in the result of the game.
Shots will be taken at both ends of the ice. The area of the ice to be used will be dry scraped.
A coin toss will determine which team takes the first shot, with the winner of the toss having the choice whether his team will shoot first or second.
Any player whose penalty was not over when overtime ended cannot take the shots and must stay in the penalty box or in the dressing room.
The goaltenders will defend the same goal, as in the overtime period. The goaltenders from each team may be changed after each shot.
The players of both teams will take the shots alternately until a decisive goal is scored.
Only the decisive goal will count in the result of the game. It shall be credited to the team that scored the goal and charged against the team that was scored upon.
