Finland is the only thing that stands between two New York Rangers and a gold medal game at the 2017 World Championships.
Oscar Lindberg and Henrik Lundqvist joined Team Sweden after the Rangers were eliminated from the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Thus far the Swedes have appeared in three games for their home country.
Since joining Sweden on the other side of the Atlantic Lundqvist is undefeated and has a .921 save percentage. He recently earned honors as Sweden’s player of the game for a 26-save performance against Switzerland.
Lindberg has two assists in three games playing in a scoring role for Sweden on a line with Nicklas Backstrom and William Nylander.
