Thursday's 8–1 crushing of Switzerland was followed on Saturday by a 4–2 victory over the Czech Republic.

The next opponent, Finland, also had nothing to offer against Sweden, which is showing good form ahead of the Ice Hockey World Championship.

In the first two matches, Tre Kronor was carried forward by the JVM winners and super talents Ivar Stenberg and Viggo Björck.

Against Finland, the national team's slightly more experienced players stepped up and showed the way to victory.

The scorers were Vancouver's Liam Öhgren, SCL Tigers' André Petersson and Växjö's Karl Henriksson.

Next up for Tre Kronor is the Beijer Hockey Games in Ängelholm May 7–10. After that, the Ice Hockey World Championship will be played in Switzerland May 15–31.
