A little more than two weeks after the 2014 Winter Olympics began in Sochi, the games are finally coming to a close. Sunday wasn't without some last-minute Olympic action, however.

Canada dominated ice hockey once again when the men's team triumphed over Sweden in a 3-0 shutout victory during the competition's gold-medal match. Host country Russia came out on top in the four-man bobsleigh competition, beating out second-place Latvia and the Steven Holcomb-led United States, which nabbed bronze.

Russia, which won four out of the seven medals awarded Sunday, also went out with a bang in the men's cross-country mass start. It swept the podium with Alexander Legkov on top, Maxim Vylegzhanin in second and Ilia Chernousov in third.
