    Jansen HARKINS - 5:1
     
    56:46
    Goal for Team Canada!
    Harkins goes five-hole on the penalty shot, it looked like Sandstrom stopped it but it squeeked through the pads and slowly slid across the goal line.

    Breakaway for Jansen Harkins, tripped from behind by Alexander Younan and he's getting a penalty shot.

    Brisebois centres for Nic Roy, big scramble in the crease and finally Sandstrom covers.
    Mitchell STEPHENS - 4:1

    Scramble in front of the Swedish goal and it's MITCHELL STEPHENS who fires home his second goal of the game and gives them a 3-goal lead.

    49:05
    Ahl centres to Joel Ek Eriksson right in front, but Zachary Sawchenko denies him on the backhand.
     
    45:02
    Canada again with possession in the Swedish zone and Lucas Carlsson is called for a cross-check in front of the net. Canada to the power play.
    Mitchell STEPHENS - 3:1
     
    43:21
    Goal for Team Canada!
    Tyler Soy's shot was deflected by MITCHELL STEPHENS right into the pad of Sandstrom, but he got his own rebound and put it in to restore Canada's 2-goal lead.
    Assist: Tyler Soy.
     
    38:00
    And Sawchenko is actually getting a penalty on the play for tripping. Tyler Soy is serving the penalty, so Sweden to the power play.
     
    38:00
    Sweden with the momentum now and they very nearly tie it but Zachary Sawchenko makes a big save to keep Canada in the lead.
    Philip MAGNUSSON - 2:1
     
    36:34
    Goal for Team Sweden!
    The Swedes cut the deficit in half, as Younan finds PHILIP MAGNUSSON in the high slot, and fires it though a crowd.
    Assist: Alexander Younan.
    Lawson CROUSE - 2:0
     
    34:30
    Goal for Team Canada!
    He had one chance from right in front and fired it over the crossbar, but the puck is fed right back in front to LAWSON CROUSE and he made good the second time to make it 2-0.
    Assists: Nicolas Roy, Nick Merkley.
     
    29:33
    Battle for the puck along the boards in the Canadian zone and Jeremy Roy is called for cross-checking. Sweden to the power play.
     
    28:00
    Back and forth action, first Sweden at one end, Ahl and Leman, then Canada on the 2-on-1, Sandstrom denies Stephens.
    Travis KONECNY - 1:0
     
    26:36
    Goal for Team Canada!
    They move it around on the power play, Mathew Barzal fires it off the crossbar and it comes right to TRAVIS KONECNY, who puts it in before Sandstrom could cover the near post.
    Assists: Mathew Barzal, Mitchell Vande Sompel.
     
    25:46
    Sweden's Jonathan Davidsson is now called for tripping, Canada to the power play.
     
    21:10
    Canada work it around on the PP, Roy centres to Strome for the one-timer from the slot, denied by Sandstrom.
     
    19:14
    Oliver Erixon is now getting a penalty for Sweden, so Canada to the power play, 0/2.
     
    16:01
    Another Canadian penalty as Nicolas Meloche is called for cross-checking, so Sweden will have another 5-on-3, this one for :13.
     
    14:47
    No goal. Faceoff in the Swedish zone with 1:27 left in their power play.
     
    14:47
    Jansen Harkins gets a partial break shorthanded and fires a shot off the goalpost. They're now checking upstairs, but I don't think it went it.
     
    14:14
    Sweden headed right back to the power play as Nick Merkley takes a slash on Lucas Carlsson.
     
    11:27
    We've now got a hooking penalty against Canada's Mitchell Marner, so after :04 Sweden will have a two-man advantage.
     
    10:35
    Konecny tries to take the puck to the net, then Barzal tries to jam it in but is forced wide.
     
    09:54
    The power play is over after 23 seconds as Nicolas Roy is called for charging. We'll play 4-on-4.
     
    09:31
    Elnar Emanuelsson is getting Sweden's second penalty for interference, though he doesn't like the call. Canada back to the power play, 0/1.
     
    05:56
    It looks like that hit got the desired effect, as Sweden's Jacob Larsson retaliates and gets called for roughing. Canada to the power play.
