Davos, in training with international striker Matěj Stránský, took a decisive step towards victory right at the start of the match. Andrew Rowe opened the scoring just 31 seconds into the game, Leon Bristedt added the second goal at 1:55. The Canadians then rallied but only managed to beat goalkeeper Sandro Aeschlimann once. Brett Connolly scored for the third time of the tournament, netting both of Canada’s goals against Sparta on Monday.
Forward Elias Ekström signed for Örebro’s win with one goal and two assists. Currently, the fourth team in the Swedish championship, with which the 20-year-old Czech striker Radek Mužík is once again the owner, has scored two goals in power play, one in a weakening and one in power play opponent. Even the significant shooting superiority of the IFK did not help their success.
