Sweden (1-0-0-0) put away Austria with a six-goal second period on Monday and takes the ice at the Scotiabank Center in Halifax again on Tuesday against Germany.

Sweden won the bronze medal at the 2022 event, which was played in Edmonton in August, while Germany lost in the quarter-finals. Sweden has a pair of top 2023 NHL draft prospects on the roster in defenseman Axel Sandin Pellikka and forward Leo Carlsson. The Germans lack top draft-eligible talent but have forwards Luca Hauf and Ryan del Monte who play in the Ontario Hockey League. Swedish forward Fabian Lysell plays for the Bruins’ best farm club in Providence and right winger Isak Rosén is with Rochester, the best AHL team for the Sabres.
