MILAN — The Swedes are in trouble. Just two days after needing a third-period rally to beat Italy, Team Sweden lost convincingly to its archrival Finland on Friday, 4-1, in a performance that ought to raise alarm bells for the 2006 gold medalists. Finland, which lost its first game at the Olympics to Slovakia, was more physical, more composed and had better goaltending.
