In Group A, the top spot is on the line between Russia (Artem Anisimov and prospect Maxim Shalunov) and Sweden (Erik Gustafsson). Sweden, the reigning Worlds champion, is undefeated in the tournament while Russia is one point back. Anisimov and Shalunov each have six points in the tournament, while Gustafsson has only one assist.
