Analysis:

A marvelous outing for Halak, who shutdown a potent Sweden offensive attack. The Islanders netminder is having a fantastic tournament, posting a 3-1-0 record with a .947 save percentage. The Slovakia native is now 9-0 in his last nine games against Henrik Lundqvist and a big reason why Europe is off to the finals against Canada. Look for the World Cup of Hockey finals matchup to come down to a critical goaltending duel between Halak and former Montreal teammamte Carey Price.
