•Canada wins 2-1 in overtime as London’s Drew Doughty scores the critical goal. Here the 24-year old defenseman high fives teammates. It was a hard-fought game that drove fans mad with anxiety — nervous, heart attack, going insane — all were invoked by Canadian supporters. Here is CBC explanation of the complex Olympic ranking system.
Canada moved on to the quarter-finals of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, but it won’t be as the No. 1 seed. Drew Doughty scored two goals, including the overtime winner, as Team Canada earned a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Finland at Bolshoy Ice Dome Sunday, securing the third seed and a bye into the quarter-finals. Canada will play the qualification-round winner between Latvia and Switzerland. Finland goaltender Tuukka Rask was spectacular, turning aside 25 shots in the losing effort but Canadian counterpart Carey Price was equally up to the task, although much less busy. Price, getting the start in place of Roberto Luongo, made 14 saves. The Canadians needed a regulation win (and the accompanying three points) to clinch the top spot but finished atop Group B with eight points, while Finland was second with seven. With the overtime win Sweden officially clinched the top seed, and will face the winner of with the U.S. sliding into the second spot.

•St. Anselm kids send love, friendship to Uganda

•Here are the faces of three of the young spirits at St. Anselm Catholic School on Bessborough Drive who grew a little today as they took part in a moving exchange by Skype of Valentine messages with 17 children in Uganda. Teacher Michele Whyte organized the assembly and communication in a program called C.H.A.T. to the Future. C.H.A.T. stands for “Care and Hope through Adoption and Technology”. a registered charity started by a teacher in New Brunswick. Ms. Whyte told CTV that St. Anselm’s wants its pupils to become “global learners” and to know about different ways of life. She has arranged other Skype visits by her class to far off places. Students at the school sold candy grams and raised $500 for the 17 orphans who reside at C.H.A.T. House, ages 5 to 17 years, in Uganda. The St. Anselm students sent messages to their Ugandan friends and, as reported by the school’s website, were deeply touched by the stories of their counterparts who live in Uganda. CTV Naomi Parness.
