Welcome to the live blog for quarter-final number one in men’s Olympic hockey between Sweden and Slovenia!

Slovenia comes into the game after defeating Austria in their qualifying game while Sweden was the first seeded group overall in the tournament.

Out of action for Sweden is Henrik Zetterberg and that essentially leaves Sweden without their top three centres.

Puck drop is just after 3 AM Eastern so join us, won’t you?
