Sweden Win WJC

Sweden defeated Russia 1-0 in Overtime in a game that was as exciting as any high scoring game.   The Russian goaltender Andrei Makarov was tremendous in defeat as he face 58 shots and only let 1 get by him.   The Swedish goalie faced on 17 all night and made them count.

This is the first WJC title for the Swedes since 1981.
