Sweden Falls to Finland, Misses Out on Helsinki Tournament Title

Tre Kronor led Finland 2–1 and looked set to win the tournament in Helsinki. But Finland rallied to win 3–2 and take the tournament on home ice.

With a 3-2 penalty shootout win over the Czech Republic in Prague on Thursday and a 4-2 win over Switzerland in Helsinki, newly appointed national team coach Rikard Grönborg had the chance to get a taste of his return as Tre Kronor’s head coach.

But it was not to be.

Emil Bemström (Bern) and Samuel Fagemo (Frölunda) scored Sweden’s goals.

Tre Kronor’s next tournament is on December 10-13, this time in Switzerland.
