Olympic hockey knockout round schedule

For those who have been getting by on minimal sleep during the tournament, rejoice! Jonathan Quick, Dustin Brown and the United States, and Drew Doughty, Jeff Carter and Canada will draw the preferred 9:00 a.m. PT time slot when they continue their gold medal campaigns on Wednesday. Of course, you’ll have to flip between the channels to witness both teams in action, but the dual mid-morning games are preferred over those that take place in the middle of the night. As you’re already well aware, should both teams win their first knockout round games, they’ll meet in the semifinals. The full brackets can be found here. Another schedule page can be accessed here.
