The tiebreaker is funny sometimes. Switzerland could finish third, fourth, or fifth in their pool depending on what happens in the Russia-Czechia game.

Switzerland loses a two-team tiebreaker against Denmark, but wins a three-team tiebreaker against the Czechs and Denmark.

If the Czechs win in regulation, they'll get the second seed in group B, and bump the Swiss down to fifth with Denmark getting fourth. If the Czechs lose, Denmark gets third and Switzerland gets fourth. If the Czechs win in OT/SO, then it becomes a three-way tie and the Czechs still finish last, but Switzerland and Denmark would flip positions, with the Swiss getting third and the Danes getting fourth.
