Nashville Predators prospect Filip Forsberg has joined Team Sweden for the 2014 World Junior Championships and, in their opener, lead them to victory.
The 19-year old Swedish captain recorded a goal and an assist in the 5-3 win over the Swiss on Thursday but the goal, in particular, was something to behold.
Forsberg’s efforts begin at the 2:23 mark of the video below.
Sweden has the day off today before taking on Finland and Norway on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
