I've never been on a team that's so tight and together.
I've got to think about our team and how we play. We've got lots of time to talk about this when we get back to Nashville.
Every time we play Sweden it's a big game, it doesn't matter if it's the world championships or an exhibition game.
When you go to school, you have to learn Swedish, that's the first thing.
