Canucks' Loui Eriksson: Scores into empty net against Finland

Eriksson scored an empty-netter for Sweden with 2.6 seconds remaining in Tuesday's 2-0 win over Finland at the World Cup of Hockey.

Analysis:

Goaltenders Tuukka Rask and Henrik Lundqvist stood tall in this one, but Eriksson was able to sneak his way onto the score sheet after Finland pulled Rask in search of a late equalizer. The sniper finished with a plus-2 rating and two shots on goal in the contest. He'll look to light the lamp early and often for Vancouver this season after scoring 30 goals for the Bruins in 2015-16.
