CALGARY -- Max Friberg did it again. Swedens breakout star had a goal and an assist in the third period and then scored the winner in a shootout to lead Sweden to a 3-2 win over Finland in semifinal action at the mens world junior hockey championship on Tuesday. Friberg also scored the game-tying goal and set up the winner in Swedens 4-3 overtime win over Russia on Saturday. "Its good TV in Sweden," said Friberg when asked about his propensity to lead Sweden to thrilling come-from-behind wins. With the win, the Swedes advanced to Thursdays gold-medal game against the winner of the other semifinal clash between Canada and Russia. "Its a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win a gold medal at the world juniors, so of course Im excited," said Friberg, a fifth-round pick of the Anaheim Ducks. With his team trailing 2-1, Swedish coach Roger Ronnberg called a timeout with 2:38 left in the final period and the strategy worked as Friberg scored to force overtime. "Hes a hard-working kid," Ronnberg said. "He has the best character of any guy that Ive ever coached." Johan Sundstrom intercepted a clearing attempt by Finnish goalie Sami Aittokallio and threw the puck out front to Friberg, who tapped it into an empty net. "(The puck) was wobbling a little bit," Friberg said. "I had a type of thought like Dont miss this. Dont miss this. It ended up well." After a scoreless overtime period, Sebastien Collberg scored for Sweden in the shootout before Joel Armia replied for Finland. Friberg then took centre stage and wired a shot through Aittokallios legs for the eventual game-winner. "My thought was to shoot between his legs," Friberg said. "I looked at my opportunities, but I figured it was the best and it was." William Karlsson also had a goal for Sweden, which finished 1-for-3 on the power play. Alexander Ruuttu and Armia scored in regulation for Finland, which didnt have a single power play in the game. "Its amazing that they didnt get any penalties," said Finnish forward Teemu Pulkkinen. "I cant understand that." Johan Gustafsson made 22 saves to record the win in the Swedish net, while Aittokallio stopped 55-of-57 shots he faced for Finland at the other end of the ice. "He played a great game," Finnish coach Raimo Helminen said of Aittokallio. "We didnt have as much energy as we probably had some games, but the guys played good. All the way they played really good. Im really proud of them." Finland will play for bronze on Thursday afternoon against the loser of the Canada-Russia game. "We were so close but we didnt win today," Pulkkinen said. "This is a very disappointing day for us, but we have to move on." Earlier Tuesday, the United States downed Latvia 12-2 in a relegation game. Sweden opened the tournament with a 9-4 win over Latvia before squeaking past Switzerland 4-3 in a shootout. After a 9-1 win over Slovakia, Sweden earned top spot in Pool A and a bye into the semifinal by virtue of a come-from-behind 4-3 overtime win over Russia. After opening the tournament with an 8-1 loss to Canada, Finland beat the United States 4-1, trounced Denmark 10-1 and blanked the Czech Republic 4-0. The Finns then downed Slovakia 8-5 in quarter-final action on Monday and vowed to play better defensively in their sudden-death showdown against the Swedes. Early in the first period, Gustaffson made a nice chest save to stop a shot from Finnish forward Joonas Donskoi. At the other end of the ice, Aittokallio stood his ground to deny a scoring attempt by Swedens Rickard Rakell. Aittokallio then kicked out his left pad to stop a shot that was tipped in the slot by Karlsson. Not to be outdone, Gustaffson made a nice pad save to thwart a great scoring attempt by Finlands Teemu Pulkkinen, who one-timed a pass from Mikael Granlund on net. Despite being outshot 14-6 in the first period, Finland emerged with a 1-0 lead on a late goal by Ruuttu. On the play, Miro Aaltonen skated down the left wing into the Swedish zone and around both Mattias Backman and Rickard Rakell before sending a perfect pass into the slot to Ruuttu, who snapped a quick shot past Gustaffson. Sweden continued to pour on the pressure in the second period and came close to scoring when Mika Zibanejad fired a heavy shot off the right post behind Aittokallio, who later turned aside back-to-back shots by Victor Rask and Zibanejad. Finland then took a 2-0 lead at 15:30 of the second when Armia stripped the puck from Swedens Joakim Nordstrom before firing a shot over Gustafssons glove hand and into the top corner. The Swedes then cut the deficit to one at 3:11 of the third period with a power-play goal by Karlsson. Aittokallio stopped the initial shot by Swedish captain Johan Larsson, but the puck bounced in off of Karlsson, who was driving hard to the net. Aittokallio made six saves in overtime, while Gustafsson stopped all three shots he faced in the extra session. wholesale jerseys . Coyles nine goals in one playoff series are a club record.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets wide receiver Plaxico Burress, kick returner Joe McKnight and safety Brodney Pool did not practise Wednesday as the team prepares for its game Sunday night against the New England Patriots. Burress dealt with a stiff lower back and was questionable last week before catching a team-high five passes for 79 yards in New Yorks 27-11 win at Buffalo on Sunday. He was in sweats while the team practiced and said he would talk to reporters Thursday. McKnight, who leads the NFL by averaging 40.2 yards per kickoff return, sat out with what coach Rex Ryan said was a toe injury. Pool injured his left knee against the Bills, but finished the game. He said he had a minor sprain and an MRI exam revealed no tears. "I feel pretty good with where were at," Ryan said. "I think were going to have (everyone). ... I think were healthy and were going to be just fine." Ryan added that Pool might be the only player who could miss the game, which is for first place in the AFC East. Tight end Dustin Keller and runnning back Shonn Greene, who suffered head injuries at Buffalo, fully participated in the padded practice.dddddddddddd Greene is also dealing with a strained groin. Keller, who was injured when he went airborne while trying to leap a Bills defender, isnt even on the Jets injury list. He sat out the rest of the first half against the Bills before returning after halftime. "That was a mistake," Keller said, adding it was a split-second decision to jump. "You live and you learn, and I dont think Ill be doing too much jumping. But, you never know." Defensive end Marcus Dixon (shoulder) and linebacker Josh Mauga (lower back) were limited. Starting defensive end Mike DeVito, who has missed the last two games with a knee injury, was a full participant Wednesday, as were defensive lineman Kenrick Ellis (left ankle), wide receiver Santonio Holmes (foot), centre Nick Mangold (ankle), linebacker Calvin Pace (groin), left guard Matt Slauson (neck) and defensive back Isaiah Trufant (hamstring). cheap nfl jerseys ' ' '
