USA vs Sweden Bronze Medal Game; Rangers Prospects Kreider, Bourque, Fasth Shine w/Video
Team USA won the Bronze medal against Sweden today and for New York Rangers fans it was a show of what the future can be down the line as Chris Kreider, Jesper Fasth and Ryan Bourque all had a huge impact on the game.
Kreider led the way with two goals, one a hard working goal from the front on the power play and the other a beautiful wrister on a two-on-one breakaway for the clincher. Kreider ended the tournament with four goals and two assists. Bourque played yet another solid game getting an assist on Bjugstad's game winner to give him three assists for the tournament.
Jesper Fasth who scored to get Sweden back within one during the third period would be the best Rangers prospect for the whole of the tournament also ending with four goals and two assists.
