plays to many of the strengths on this team; they are fast, have great scoring ability and are generally smart hockey players. Yet they are also young and inexperienced, as they consistently make minute mistakes that continuously turn into chances on the other end of the ice.Against Switzerland and Norway they controlled the flow of the game, dominated control of the puck and won the first game with by a handy 3-1 score. Yet the glaring mistakes against clearly inferior opponents has many worried how the United States will fare when facing Canada.
