Orchard Park, N.Y. • Brady Tkachuk and Kieffer Bellows found enough traction in the snow to score shootout goals and cap the United States' 4-3 victory over Canada on Friday in international hockey's first outdoor game.
Tkachuk and Ron Perunovich scored 34 seconds apart in the third period to rally the United States from a 3-1 deficit in the world junior championship game played in a steady snowfall at the NFL Buffalo Bills' New Era Field. Casey Mittlestadt set up all three goals for the United States (1-1-1), which rebounded from a 3-2 loss to Slovakia less than 24 hours earlier.
