    SWE – Jonathan Dahlen
     
    60:00
    Game over.
     
    58:33
    Impose circles the net and tries to go upstairs on Werner, hits him in the shoulder and it goes out of play. Faceoff in the Swedish zone.
     
    57:05
    Christian Pinana with a high wrister, Werner catches it and plays it. He wants this game to end as much as everyone else in the rink.
     
    56:03
    Swiss shoot-in goes out of play, faceoff at centre ice.
     
    54:35
    Dahlstrom cuts in on goal again, forced wide without getting a shot.
     
    52:50
    Looke centres for Dahlen, one times it wide. He's still looking for that elusive third goal of the game and Looke's assisted on both.
     
    51:02
    Jonathan Leman hits the goalpost. Guggisberg might have got a piece of it with his glove too.
     
    47:26
    Long wrister from Riat, caught and held by Werner.
     
    46:37
    Great individual effort by John Dahlstrom, tries to beat Guggisberg but the Swiss goalie doesn't bite and he runs out of room. There's a big scramble to follow and Dahlstrom indicates it's in, but the referee says no. Faceoff outside as Swedish defence comes in deep on the ensuing scuffle.
     
    45:11
    Swedes pressing, Dahlen looking for the hat-trick, takes a wrister in close but hits Guggisberg in the chest and he covers.
     
    44:21
    Wrister from Frick, save Werner, then offside against Sweden on the counter.
     
    43:01
    Icing Sweden.
     
    41:43
    Hand pass Sweden in the attacking zone, faceoff outside.
     
    40:49
    Play is stopped as Filip Ahl was involved in a collision deep in the Swiss zone and didn't get up. He's finally helped to the bench. Faceoff in the Swedish zone, as that's where the puck was by the time the whistle went.
     
    40:01
    Start of 3rd period.
