  • 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. The game was highlighted by the performance of goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic, who made 16 saves, and forward Johnny Gaudreau, who was instrumental with a goal and two assists. The U.S. team's offensive prowess was evident as they scored three goals in the first period alone, with contributions from Brady Tkachuk, Luke Hughes, and Michael Kesselring. Despite Latvia's efforts, including a goal by Dans Locmelis, the U.S. maintained control throughout the match, with additional scoring from Kevin Hayes. This win not only demonstrated the depth of talent in the American roster but also solidified their position at the top of Group B, setting a strong foundation for their upcoming games.
