    There are still two more games today . . . the medal games. First Canada – Russia for bronze and then Sweden – Finland for gold and silver. We'll cover them both for you here at Eurolivescores.com. (14:11:19)
     
    Players of the Game:

    Norway – Martin Ronnild
    Germany – Leon Draisaitl
     
    Shots on goal in the 3rd period: Germany 8 (26), Norway 17 (35).

    Norway brought the pressure in the third period, but by then they were in a three-goal hole. They scored one and had other chances, but it wasn't enough.

    After Norway won the first game of this series, Germany came back to win the next two. Germany will play in the top group next year in Toronto and Montreal, while Norway is relegated to Division 1.

    Icing Norway . . . Lesund went back to retrieve the puck at his own blueline and tried to make a long pass to the far blueline but missed his target.

    Svendsen back in the net.

    Nilsen fans on a shot, then Germany shoots it down and is called for icing.

    The Norway net is now empty, 6-on-5 for the faceoff to Cupper's left.

    Now a Norway pass to the point misses and goes all the way back to their own end.
     
    56:30
    Germany ices and that'll do it for the power play. I don't think Norway got a shot, though they had good possession around the perimeter.
