  • The men's tournament in ice hockey at the 2014 Winter Olympics was held in Sochi, Russia between 12–23 February 2014. For the fifth consecutive Olympics, players from the National Hockey League participated. Twelve countries qualified for the tournament; nine of them did so automatically by virtue of their ranking by the International Ice Hockey Federation, while the other three took part in a qualification tournament. Canada won the tournament, defeating Sweden 3–0 in the gold medal match, and avenging their 1994 gold medal loss. Finland finished with the bronze medal, defeating the United States 5–0, with captain Teemu Selänne awarded as the MVP of the tournament, scoring twice in the bronze-medal game. With the gold medal, Canada became the first men's team to successfully defend an Olympic title since the Soviet Union in 1988 and the first team to finish the tournament undefeated since 1984. Canada surrendered only three goals in six games, the fewest allowed by a gold medallist since 1928 when Canada shut out the opposition in a three-game tournament. Canada also scored only seventeen goals, the fewest by a gold medal-winning team in Olympic history, although Great Britain averaged fewer goals per game at the 1936 Winter Olympics (nineteen goals in eight games).
