Zach Werenski Scores His First Goal Of The World Championships In A Loss To Sweden

Zach Werenski scored his first goal of the tournament in a 5-2 loss to Sweden on Friday. The play was assisted by old friend Seth Jones and Matt Boldy. Jones made a nifty pass to Werenski who let a bomb go to beat Sweden's goalie Filip Gustavsson.

Werenski also had two shots on goal and led all American players with 26:28 time on ice. 

Columbus forward Johnny Gaudreau tallied an assist on a goal by Brock Nelson early in the third. Johnny also had three shots on goal. 

Expect these two Blue Jackets to rack up some points in this year's World Championships.
