USA opened the tournament with back-to-back shutout tournaments as they blew out Denmark, 5-0, and Hungary, 6-0.

They failed to make it three-in-a-row with a 3-0 defeat to Switzerland, but they have not lost since, reeling off four consecutive wins to storm into the playoffs.

The United States rebounded with a 6-5 overtime success against Norway, and backed that up by beating Germany 6-3 and Kazakhstan 6-1.

They then knocked off the defending champions in their final group game, beating the Czech Republic 5-2 on Tuesday.

Finland booked their place in the quarter-finals of the World Championship with six victories during the group stage.

The Finns enjoyed a winning start to the tournament as they beat Austria 2-1, and they backed that up with a 4-3 overtime success against France.

Just like the Americans they dropped their third outing, only to rebound with four straight wins.

Finland responded to a 2-1 loss to Sweden with a 9-1 demolition of Slovenia, and then backed that up with three consecutive 2-1 victories.

The beat Latvia and then upset Canada, before wrapping up the group stage with a victory over Slovakia.

USA v Finland

The United States have been on a tear and have the firepower to breach this tough Finland defense.

The Finns cannot match that potent offense, so we are expecting the Americans to go marching on to the semi-finals.
