Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Erik Gustafsson and newly-signed forward Dominik Kahun will be in action Wednesday at the World Championship in Denmark.
In the first set of games, Kahun and Germany will meet South Korea. Kahun was 4 for 15 on faceoffs in 18:28 of ice time in Germany’s 5-4 shootout loss to Norway. The 22-year-old did not record a shot on goal in the game and has yet to score a point in the tournament.
Gustafsson and Sweden will take on Austria. The 26-year-old registered four shots on goal in 19:09 of ice time in Sweden’s 4-0 victory over France. He has yet to record a point in three tournament games.
