Tinus Luc Koblar scored the opening goal as Norway defeated Latvia 2-0, advancing to the semifinals against Switzerland. Koblar ranks 12th in tournament scoring with six goals and nine points across eight games, showing strong net-front play and production at the international level. Canada will face Finland with John Tavares contributing three goals and six points in eight games and Morgan Rielly adding three assists. Canada reached the semifinals after a 4-0 quarterfinal win over the United States. Sweden, captained by Oliver Ekman-Larsson, was eliminated 3-1 by Switzerland despite Ekman-Larsson’s three goals and nine points.
"Oliver Ekman-Larsson submitted a much better tournament for Sweden, recording three goals and nine points, while captaining his country. Ekman-Larsson and Sweden were eliminated in a 3-1 loss to Switzerland. Although it's certainly a disappointing result, Ekman-Larsson was arguably Sweden's best player at the event."
