    The nightmare is over for Slovakia, it's Sweden's night with a thumping 6-0 victory! A simply stunning performance from the Swedes, they really couldn't have played a more perfect match if they'd tried. Lucas Wallmark got a double as did Filip Forsberg, but Elias Lindholm and Jacob De La Rose also got in on the act. The semifinal picture is now complete, and on Saturday Sweden will faceoff against Russia, and Finland will play the Canadians. Thanks for following our coverage today, and don't forget that tomorrow we have plenty of KHL hockey coming up for you! (21:51:42)
