Sweden is playing Denmark today, and after one penalty after another, the offence finally got to play. William Nylander, on a line with Nicklas Backstrom is having fun today.

That was fun, right? Well he thought so, so he did this:

I think he might be just okay at this hockey thing.

Sweden has a comfortable 3-0 lead over Denmark after two periods of play.

A better view of the second goal with more of the classic Nylander skating to make it all happen:

The final score was 4-2 for Sweden, making Nylander’s second goal the game winner. He was named player of the game for Sweden.
