Canada stuns Sweden with OT comeback in quarter-final at men's hockey worlds

Drake Batherson scored 43 seconds into overtime, putting the finishing touches on Canada's 4-3 comeback victory over Sweden in the quarter-finals at the world hockey championship on Thursday in Finland.

Ryan Graves sparked Canada's comeback with a goal 1:21 into the third, and Pierre-Luc Dubois and Matt Barzal — playing on his 25th birthday — scored 30 seconds apart later in the period to force extra time.

Nylander was called for tripping 25 seconds into overtime and Canada was quick to capitalize on the man advantage, with Batherson sending a sharp-angle shot in behind Swedish goaltender Linus Ullmark from the bottom of the faceoff circle.

Chris Driedger stopped 16-of-19 shots for Canada and Ullmark made 38 saves for Sweden.

Canada will face the winner of a quarter-final matchup between Switzerland and the United States in the semifinals on Saturday. The medal games are set to be played on Sunday.
