Recapping Friday’s Men’s Olympic hockey action, Switzerland’s Kevin Fiala suffers a tournament-ending injury, an update on Canadian defenseman Josh Morrissey, and more in today’s NHL Morning Coffee Headlines.

NHL.COM: Connor McDavid and Nathan MacKinnon each had a goal and two assists to propel Canada to a 5-1 victory over Switzerland on Friday. Sidney Crosby scored his first goal of the tournament, Macklin Celebrini and Cale Makar each had two points, and Logan Thompson made 24 saves for Canada (2-0-0-0), who are assured of first place in Group A.

Pius Suter replied for Switzerland (1-0-0-1), who also lost winger Kevin Fiala to a tournament-ending leg injury following a collision with Canadian winger Tom Wilson late in the third period.

SPECTOR’S NOTE: Fiala was stretchered from the game and sent to a hospital. Wilson has a reputation for dirty hits, but Fiala’s teammates and head coach said there was nothing malicious about that play.

Fiala is among Switzerland’s best players. His absence could hurt their medal hopes in this tournament. He’s also among the Los Angeles Kings’ best players, and his injury could have implications for their playoff hopes if he’s out long-term.

Speaking of injuries, Canadian coach Jon Cooper provided an update on sidelined defenseman Josh Morrissey, who missed this contest with an undisclosed injury suffered during Canada’s tournament-opening win over Czechia on Thursday. He indicated that Morrissey will miss Sunday’s game against France, but hasn’t been ruled out for the remainder of the tournament.

Finland recovered from their tournament-opening loss to Slovakia by defeating Sweden 4-1. Juuse Saros made 34 saves (including 17 in the third period) while Nikolas Matinpolo, Anton Lundell, Joel Armia, and Mikko Rantanen scored for Finland (1-0-0-1). Rasmus Dahlin replied for Sweden (1-0-0-1).

SPECTOR’S NOTE: The loss prompted the Swedes to make changes to their roster for Saturday’s game against Slovakia. Jacob Markstrom replaced goaltender Filip Gustavsson, while defenseman Rasmus Andersson and center Elias Lindholm were replaced by Hampus Lindholm and Marcus Johansson.

A story emerged claiming that several of the Finnish players would’ve preferred Florida Panthers head coach Paul Maurice as their bench boss for this tournament over current coach Antti Pennanen. The report was downplayed by Finland’s general manager Jere Lehtinen.

Czechia got four straight goals to overcome a 3-2 deficit for a 6-3 win over France. David Pastrnak and Martin Necas had a goal and an assist for Czechia (1-0-0-1). Louis Boudon scored twice for France (0-0-0-2), who overcame a 2-0 deficit to take the lead in the second period, until a horrible line change during a power play late in the second period led to Czechia regaining the lead.

Slovakia held off Italy (0-0-0-2) by a score of 3-2. Adam Ruzicka scored what proved to be the winning goal while Juraj Slakovsky collected an assist on Libor Hudacek’s game-opening goal for Slovakia (2-0-0-0).
