Men's hockey USA vs Slovenia live stream: Watch online free Sunday 7:30 a.m. ET - The Americans look to keep it rolling after a thrilling shootout victory on Saturday over Russia.

This will be the final day of pool-play in Sochi for the 2014 Winter Olympics men's hockey portion. It will be a 2-0 USA team that has five points overall because you only get two if you in overtime or a shootout. They play vs a Slovenia team that is 1-1 with only a -1 overall. Watch the free live stream online as they look to solidify first place in Group A and a bye from the first round of the playoffs.

The Americans won a game that was controversial when Russia scored to make it 3-2, but it was disallowed because the net was not in place. Then the game went to overtime with no goals, which was followed by a great shootout. The shootout would go to an overtime itself. In international play, after the first three rounds, anybody can go and they can go multiple times. TJ Oshi went six times total, scoring four out of the six times. Twice, he kept the USA in it by tying it up. Then, he ended it with a goal through the five-hole.

"It was awesome," U.S. center Joe Pavelski of the San Jose Sharks said. "Whatever type of game you want to explain it as, it was that."

Oshie joked he was glad to end the shootout when he did because he was running out of moves.

Ironically, he didn't score on two of his better moves as he missed an open net with a shot wide to the right in the fourth round, and Bobrovsky had to come up with a majestic, reaching-back paddle save to stop him in the seventh round, according to NHL.com.

"Somebody asked me what kind of dog he would be if he was a dog?" said David Backes, Oshie's teammate with the Blues and his roommate here in Sochi. "I said, 'He's a Jack Russell terrier.' He needs his attention directed or else he gets into a little mischief and he needs it guided. Today it was all functioned and funneled in the right way. He does some amazing things when it is."
