from Steven Ellis of The Daily Faceoff,

Canada and Germany will play for gold at the 2023 World Hockey Championship on Sunday after tight victories on semifinal Saturday.

Canada has advanced to the title game for the seventh time over the past eight years. They last won in 2021 against Finland, but lost in 2019 and 2022, also to Finland.

Germany, meanwhile, has never won gold and has never advanced to the tournament’s championship game. They have won silver before, but that was in 1930 when they didn’t have a playoff format. They trailed 2-0 early against USA, who entered the game with a perfect 8-0 record.

Puck drop is set for 1:20 PM ET on Sunday, May 28.

Is Mo back playing with GER? I saw he missed a game earlier, but didn't see why

He played a little over 27 minutes today.

He missed most of one game  earlier after getting a game misconduct for a hit.

German hockey has been very good of late - I don't know what they are doing, but the country has been doing well on the international stage
