Lucas Raymond was one of a handful of Detroit Red Wings players selected to represent their countries in the 2026 IIHF World Championship, and he's doing his part to ensure Sweden earns a favorable result.
Raymond racked up three points as part of Sunday's 6-2 victory by the Swedes over Denmark; he and fellow top linemates Viggo Bjorck and Ivar Stenberg combined for seven points in the win.
Not only did he register a pair of assists, but he also scored his second goal of the tournament on a one-timer from a sharp angle in the left faceoff circle.
