Correct. If the Swiss win in regulation, Canada can win the group with any win over Korea. A Swiss OT win would require Canada to win in regulation to win the Group.
Winning the Group would get Canada an "easier" opponent in the Quarterfinal.
The Swiss-Czech game goes before Canada-Korea, so they'll know all the winning scenarios before their game starts (unless Willie doesn't tell them, like McLellan did to Team NA at the World Cup).
