The USA and Canada were favorites entering both the men's and women's tournaments and the script has played out according to expectation.Following the USA Women's stirring overtime win against their arch rivals to capture gold Thursday, the men of both countries had to punch their tickets Friday.For the second time in the elimination phase, Canada used late heroics to advance to the final over Finland while the Americans put a beat down on Slovakia.They met in the Four Nations Final last year and now do an encore - for Olympic gold.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #PatrickHoffman #NHL #SummerCoolers #QuickTakes #WinterOlympics #SidneyCrosby #MikkoRantanen #SebastianAho #ErikHaula #SamReinhart #SheaTheodore #BradMarchand #JordanBinnington #JuuseSaros #NathanMacKinnon #ConnorMcDavid #NikoMikkola #MacklinCelebrini #JackHughes #ZachWerensky #DylanLarkin #JackEichel #TageThompson #BradyTkachuk #HilaryKnight #LailaEdwards #MeganKeller #ClaireThompson #Ann-MarieDebiens #WayneGretzky #JamesvanRiemsdyk #DetroitRedWings #TrevorvanRiemsdyk #WashingtonCapitals
