Monday's matchup with Switzerland looms as a classic trap game for the U.S. women's hockey team.
With the most anticipated game of the Olympics — USA vs. Canada — coming up Tuesday, the Americans will need to stay focused and take care of business against the Swiss.
Coach John Wroblewski's team has rolled through his first two games in Group A play, beating Czechia and Finland by a combined score of 10-1 and totaling 91 shots on goal to just 25 for the opposition. Seven players have scored for Team USA, with Alex Carpenter, Hayley Scamurra and Hilary Knight netting two goals apiece.
Knight's goal against Finland was the 14th of her Olympic career, tying the U.S. record shared by Natalie Darwitz and Katie King. If the captain scores again in Milan, she'll stake sole claim to the record.
The Swiss opened the tournament with a shootout win over Czechia but fell 4-0 to Canada on Saturday. The U.S. will try to dismiss them in similar fashion ahead of Tuesday's showdown to end group play.
Here's how to watch all the action from Milan.
