Eriksson Ek and Brodin, a pair of Minnesota Wild first-round picks who hail from the same small hometown in Sweden, live on the same lake in the offseason and played their Swedish Elite League hockey for their hometown Farjestad, each scored goals to give Sweden a stunning chance.

A Saturday doubleheader on ABC and ESPN+ includes the second game for all four squads. Here are keys to victory, broadcast details and more.

The two last faced each other in the IIHF World Championship in 2019. Finland defeated Sweden 5-4 in overtime in the quarterfinals and went on to win gold; Lankinen allowed four goals on 18 shots in that game, including one by Pettersson. “As of now we’re not teammates for a week,” Lankinen said. “But maybe when we get back, we’ll talk more.”
