Filip Forsberg scored the shootout winner as Sweden beat Switzerland 3-2 to win its second straight World Championship gold.
Sweden overcame a scare against the underdog Swiss team, who led twice in the game before Mika Zibanejad's game-tying goal in the second period.
For Switzerland, this marks the team's second silver medal in six years after coincidentally losing to Sweden in the final in 2013.
Vancouver Canucks netminder Anders Nilsson stopped 26 of 28 shots in regulation and overtime and another four shots in the shootout to get the win. Meanwhile, Swiss goaltender Leonardo Genoni did all he could turning away 43 shots in the game and another two on four shots in the shootout.
With the win, Sweden has now captured gold in three of the last six editions of the tournament and medaled in four.
