Canada rebounds from tough game to bury Sweden and move into semi-finals


Against a Sweden team that was light on NHL talent, Canada dominated possession and pounded shot after shot on Vancouver Canucks goaltender Jacob Markstrom. But no one could beat him — not even Gustav Nyqvuist, who entered the game tied for the tournament lead with seven goals in seven games. Six different players scored for Canada, with Mark Scheifele and Mark Stone each finishing with a goal and two assists. Goaltender Cam Talbot, who had allowed four goals against Finland on Tuesday, made 24 saves for his third shutout. Sweden was so desperate for some offence that when Canada took back-to-back penalties, Sweden pulled its goalie with about 14 minutes remaining in the third period for a 6-on-3 man-advantage.
