The one-year-old Alnefelt, who can also stand in JVM next year, saved 32 of 34 shots in the bronze match against Finland.

Above all, he acted wall in the third and final period when Sweden held off to victory with 3-2 and salvaged the medal.

Afterwards, he is hailed as the tournament's best goalkeeper by SVT's expert Mikael Renberg.

- I think he can be Sweden's next big goalkeeper. He has the conditions to become a starting goalkeeper in the NHL. Not many Swedes have succeeded, they may be six or seven ever, but Alsenfelt can be one of them. He is so good, says Renberg.

Then do you see Alnefelt as a very big future man?

- Yes I do. I think Sweden had the best goalkeeper in the entire junior World Cup.

Alnefelt himself about how he got to tire in the third period where Finland won the shots with 11-4:

- It is tough so, really a mental struggle, but you have to try to focus only on his, he tells SVT Sport and continues:

- The match was up and down and we gave them some positions, but also benefited from the ones we got. We won so it's good.
