And the second instead, Canada’s 4-3 overtime victory over Sweden. A game full of pathos between North Americans and Scandinavians. At first the Swedes go 3-0, with Kleinberg, Nylander and Freiberg: but since the middle of the second period things have changed.

The guest brand: Sykora and Regenda started the match 0-2, but before the break it became 1-2 with the goal of Antilla. The Finns cling to the hope that it becomes more realistic to start the game.
