4 Takeaways From the United States' 5-1 Win Over Latvia

Following an inspired effort and a shootout win against host nation Canada in its capital last night, Latvia rolled into its second tournament matchup against the United States with loads of confidence.
The United States secured a convincing 5-1 victory over Latvia in the IIHF World Championship, showcasing their dominance in the tournament.
