After a timid first period, the Swedes really picked up their game in the second and looked ready to run away with it, but the Swiss battled back with a pair of power-play markers in the 3rd. They then had a chance to go ahead on a last-minute penalty shot but couldn't, and instead it was the Jacob Cedarholm who provided the late heroics as Sweden win 4-3.
11 – Dominik Volejnicek (2 goals)
14 – Erik Brannstrom (2 assists, including the winner)
Brannstrom from the halfboards to JACOB CEDARHOLM at the point, he makes a move to beat a Swiss PKer and then fires a beautiful wrister from the top of the circle that beats Wuthrich high. Power-play goal, and the power play will continue to the end.
Assist: Erik Brannstrom.
Faceoff in the Swedish zone, Swedish PP continues.
