The 4 Nations Face-Off features four teams ( U.S. , Canada , Sweden , Finland ) and eight games, including Thursday ’s third -place and championship games.

It isn’t technically an exclusively NHL event — the teams are selected and run by each participating country's national team, i.e. USA Hockey .

"I think it could inspire another generation of young players to want to play the game," coach Mike Sullivan said.

The three early fights received a lot of attention from Saturday .

The play that followed was no less forceful.

Watch the breathtaking speed of the Edmonton Oilers’ Connor McDavid on Canada ’s first goal or the care-not, all-in bodycheck that the Boston BruinsCharlie McAvoy delivered on McDavid later in the game.
