U.S. women in ‘disarray’ in sweep by Canada

CRANBERRY, Pa. -- Team USA nearly rallied from an early three-goal deficit but ultimately fell to Canada, 5-3, in the second and final game of the joint women's camp at the Lemieux Complex in front of another sellout crowd on Sunday.

After Game 1 on Friday, a 4-1 win by Canada, the message from the Americans was that the team came out "flat" after they trailed 2-1 and were outshot 10-5 in the first period, and they were unable to dig themselves out of the early hole after they were able to build some momentum.
