Team USA picked up its third straight victory as shot-shy Italy once again struggled to produce the offence needed to hurt an opponent at this level. The shot-count from the ‘Squaddra Azzurra’ told the tale of this game – just two efforts on Jimmy Howard’s goal in the first period and three in the next ensured that the Italians were a long way from scoring the goals that might have sparked a shock result. Those kind of stats put huge pressure on the defence to produce a flawless game – but that did not happen here. The first two American goals – both scored by Brock Nelson – were both of the order that has coaches howling in frustration. First, in the sixth minute, Daniel Glira was far too casual when looking to play the puck from beyond his own goal line. The attempted clearance went straight to Nelson, and the Islanders’ centre needed no second invitation to rifle home a wrister from the face-off spot. Nelson's contribution has not gone unnoticed by team captain Connor Murphy. "He's a skilled guy and he brings a lot to the national team," Murphy said. "It might have been when we were in Prague, and he had some unbelievable plays. He's a natural player and a good team-mate. That's why we've had some success in the tournament, and Brock's been a big part of that." Early in the second Italy had its best spell of the game. Raphael Andergassen was a whisker away from releasing Giulio Scandella for a solo rush, but the pass just evaded his team-mate’s stick and by the time Scandella recovered possession he was force to wire a shot from out wide that was comfortable for Howard. Then came the next defensive lapse. Italy had the power play, but Nelson overpowered Simon Kostner and set Dylan Larkin down the left channel. Nelson continued his advance and was perfectly placed to redirected Larkin’s feed inside Andreas Bernard’s near post. Two goals for Nelson, two for the USA, and yet more frustration for the Italians. Larkin moved on to seven assists for the tournament on that play, enjoying his third World Championship campaign after a frustrating NHL season with the Red Wings - and added that his struggles in Detroit were an added motivation to join up with his country in Cologne. "I had a bitter taste in my mouth from the season just gone and I wanted to come over here," he said. "Every time you get to wear this jersey it's an honour but, more than that, I wanted to finish my season on a positive note. We've got a great group coming over and we want to win medals. It's a mix of personal things, team things, country things and I've got a positive feeling that we can do well in this tourament." Soon afterwards the Americans added a third, continuing Italy’s misery on the penalty kill. Anders Lee got the goal after Johnny Gaudreau’s pass evaded an Italian stick. That was Lee’s third power play goal of the tournament; Italy slipped to eight goals allowed from 13 penalties, by some margin the worst PK figures in the competition. The final stanza was a lifeless affair. With the result beyond doubt, there was no pressure on the Americans to offer anything other than more of the same. Italy took more than 12 minutes to register its first shot of the session and, when it came, it was from beyond the Italian blue line. Howard proved alert to the test, preserving a shut-out that required just nine saves in total. "It's hard to get a sense of where your game is right now when you're playing against a team like Italy," Murphy added. "We definitely got a big confidence boost in our last game when we went against a big team, so now we just want things to roll along while we are meshing and clicking without too many hiccups." Meanwhile, there was little urgency about the USA offence for much of a third period that often felt more like a practice game than a championship encounter. A comfortable American win lifts Jeff Blashill's roster to three wins from four, while Italy is still seeking its first victory of the tournament and lies in last place in the group with a solitary point from its overtime loss to Slovakia.

Coach Dave Lewis’s team suffered its fourth straight regulation loss, falling 3-0 to the Swiss on Wednesday. Reto Schapp stepped up with a goal and an assist, and Andres Ambuhl and Cody Almond also scored for Switzerland. The Swiss played a methodical, hard-working game, unperturbed by their 4-3 shootout loss to host France less than 24 hours ago. "It was really a tough loss yesterday," said Swiss assistant captain Philippe Furrer. "Everybody was so disappointed. We were so sure that we were going to win against France. We wanted to react today, and I think we did it the right way." Swiss goalie Leonardo Genoni registered his second shutout of the tournament. Switzerland outshot Belarus 23-14. With just three Group B games remaining, Belarus is virtually out of quarter-finals contention. They have now lost to all the premier contenders. Even more disturbingly, the country that finished seventh at both the 2014 and 2015 Worlds has scored a tournament-low goals. "We talked about them playing late last night and taking advantage of that," said Belarus goalie Kevin Lalande. "I thought we did the opposite. We came out flat. We took some stupid penalties. We gave them a lead, and that set the tone for the rest of the game." Belarus will try to get its first points on Friday versus the French. The Swiss get two days off and will battle Canada on Saturday. "We’ve got to find a way," said Lalande. "Friday’s a big game for us. We’ve beaten France in the past. We have a good track record against them. So we’ve got to come out hungry and forget about tonight." Here, early in the cautiously played first period, due to a technical error, the game clock would not stop counting down. Time was kept with a stopwatch, and the PA announced the remaining time at each stoppage. Schappi showed his timing was just fine when he opened the scoring on the power play at 17:54. Standing at Lalande’s crease, he banged in the rebound from Ramon Untersander’s drive from the left faceoff circle. The Belarusians took three minors and were outshot 12-5 in the opening stanza. The Swiss were slightly more aggressive than their opponents, but this was still a waiting game. At 15:29 of the second period, Ambuhl made it 2-0. Denis Hollenstein sent a savvy backhand pass from behind the goal line and the veteran, playing in his 14th straight Worlds, put it under the cross bar for his team-leading third goal Things opened up and the Swiss got more chances. Pius Suter was foiled by Lalande on a backhand deke on a clear break, and Vincent Praplan, who had two goals against the French, got hauled down on another glorious opportunity, giving Switzerland a late-period power play. In the third, Almond salted away the victory when he stickhandled in off right wing and zipped a wrist over Lalande's glove at 7:55. "It’s always nice to contribute for sure," said Almond. "It was a great play by Schappi to give us a 2-on-1 there. I saw the D-man cheating, so I went short side." Looking ahead to Canada, Furrer said: "Canada knows us now. That’s the problem! Maybe they underestimated us a little bit [in the past], but now they know Switzerland is fast. For sure we need to just put our weapon on the ice, our speed, and then we will have a chance to win against this big nation." Veteran Belarusian forward Andrei Kostitsyn returned to the lineup after missing the 6-0 loss to Canada due to an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
