Place, home of the Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League,

each team facing the other three teams in their grouping. The teams
were then ranked, with the top four teams qualifying for the playoff
round. As the men's tournament includes more teams, the remaining
teams will compete in a secondary round to earn one of four additional
spots in the playoff round. The top two teams in each bracket will
play in the gold medal game while the next two runner-ups will compete
for the bronze medal.5
