How they got there<\/p>\n

USA defeated Latvia, Denmark and Germany in round-robin play. Larkin earned his only point, an assist, in the game against Germany, but he’s been a threat to score and he’s been a key part of the penalty kill.<\/p>\n

Germany beat Denmark, then lost to USA and to Latvia in Group C play. Germany topped France on Tuesday in qualification play to advance. Seider has two assists in four games.<\/p>\n

Sweden played an indifferent game against Italy \u2013 the only team of the 12 at the Olympics not to have a single NHL player on the roster \u2013 and won, looked absent in a loss to Finland, and allowed a late goal to Slovakia in the final game that affected group standings. Raymond, however, has had a great tournament, with a goal and seven assists in four games.<\/p>\n

What’s next<\/p>\n

Canada has the No. 1 seed, USA is No. 2, Slovakia is No. 3 and Finland is No. 4. The tournament reseeds after every round, but there were no upsets in the qualification round. So in the quarterfinals, Finland will play Switzerland (No. 5), Slovakia will face Germany (No. 6) and USA will play Sweden (No. 7) and Canada faces the lowest-ranked team left, No. 8 Czechia.<\/p>\n
