Flames at World Juniors Day 5: Russians off to quarterfinals

It was a quiet day for Calgary Flames prospects on Wednesday at the World Juniors, with only one team in action. But the one game that went on will have huge ramifications for the standings in Group B and the seeding for the quarterfinals.

Russia 4, Sweden 3 (OT)

The streak is dead, long live the streak.

For the first time since 2006, Sweden lost a group stage game. They rallied back to force overtime, only to fall to the Russians. It was an excellent, awesome game.

Yan Kuznetsov registered a shot in 16:34 of ice time.
