Sweden have started well in the World Championships, thrashing USA 5-2 on Friday, and easing past Poland 5-1 last night, despite being a little complacent after scoring two goals against minnow Poland in just over 6 minutes. Poland netted one goal in the third but ultimately fell 5-1. This was Sweden's first match-up with Poland in the World Championships for 34 years.
Sweden's next challenge comes against Germany on Monday night.
