Two Boston Bruins players starred at the IIHF World Championships on Monday as Loui Eriksson notched a hat trick in Sweden's 8-1 win over Latvia and Torey Krug scored a power play goal in the USA's 4-2 win over Russia.
Krug scored his first goal of the tournament while the USA was on a 5-on-3 power play advantage. The goal put the Americans up 2-1 at the time. Krug was also named the U.S. player of the game (at the tournament, a player is picked from each team as player of the game). The USA defeat of Russia broke 12-game winning streak by Russia, the defending gold medal champions from last year's tournament.
