Canada won again at the under-18 Ivan Hlinka Memorial hockey tournament, thanks in large part to its special teams.

The Canadian squad scored three power-play goals and added another while shorthanded en route to a 7-5 victory over Sweden on Tuesday.

Canada improved to 2-0 at the tournament after opening with a 4-1 win over Switzerland on Monday.

"We had them both going well," said Canadian team coach Todd Gill. "Our penalty kill should be good because we used it enough."

Canada has dominated this event, having won it the last four years.

Max Domi, the son of former NHLer Tie Domi, led the way for Canada with two goals and two assists.
