But Saturday’s win, coupled with Canada’s 8-5 round-robin victory over Sweden in front of a patriotic and spirited crowd of Canadian fans on Friday night, made it two straight wins for the home country. Sweden, which had been rolling early in the championship, also lost Friday afternoon against Switzerland. This marks the first time since 2016 that Sweden has lost three consecutive games at the world championship.
The Swedes received a standing ovation as they left the ice. Their current title run is over, but Edin, who delivered one of the craziest shots in curling history with a wild spinner against Norway earlier in the week, remains one of the best and most popular curlers in the world.
