JT Miller was asked about the makeup of Team USA after their victory over Canada. He felt that the team was difficult to play against. As evident by the 3-1 defeat over Jon Cooper's Canadian group.
Team USA defeated Canada in a 3-1 victory that showed that the dominance in the hockey world is inching closer to the US now.
Team USA's makeup is a star-studded lineup that included Rangers players like
Adam Fox, and JT Miller.
They take pride in their play, and it showed at the beginning of the game when
Brady Tkachuk,
Matthew Tkachuk, and JT Miller would all break off during the start of the 1st period to drop the gloves.
Miller would engage in fisticuffs with
Colton Parayko in front of Canada's net.
The rivalry was evident from the start.
While JT Miller wouldn't come away with a point last night, he'd give the team momentum by dropping the gloves.
Miller played a total of 23 shifts last night, 14:26 TOI, with +1, 1 shot on goal, 2 hits, and 7 PIMs.
He'd play 1:24 on the PK and would win 2 out of 8 face-offs.
Miller's tenacity on the ice is evident wherever he decides to suit up whether it's for Team USA or the Rangers.
His statement about the team rings true, as Canada was unable to put a cork in the USA's game early on.
JT Miller's line, the third line would take advantage of a
Drew Doughty mistake later in the game and
Dylan Larkin would score.
Matt Boldy would be credited with the assist on the play at 13:33 in the second period, but it was a Doughty giveaway that gave the forward a go-ahead-goal.
Team USA plays with a ferocity we generally see teams who are coached by John Tortorella have.
The USA now leads the tournament with six points, and two-wins.
