After beating Canada in dramatic fashion, Kasperi Kapanen and Team Finland looked to continue their strong play against Dmytro Timashov and the undefeated Swedes.
The high-powered Finns were confident ahead of their semifinal game following a big 6-5 win over Team Canada.
"Of course we're going to beat them," Finnish draft eligible star forward Patrik Laine told TSN's Mark Masters ahead of their matchup against Sweden.
But it was the undefeated Swedes, led by Dmytro Timashov, who would silence the crowd and open the scoring, finding draft eligible prospect Rasmus Asplund on a cross-crease tap-in midway through the first period.
