THIS DAY IN SPORTS HISTORY- FEBRUARY 27

Sweden wins first Hockey gold.

25 years ago on February 27, 1994, Sweden defeated Canada 3-2 in the Olympic gold medal hockey game. Canada's Paul Kariya failed to match Peter Forsberg's sudden death alternate- shot overtime shootout goal and Tommy Salo's save gave Sweden their first Olympic hockey gold and brought a dramatic end to the Lillehmmer winter games.
