Auston Matthews, the projected first overall pick at next month’s NHL Draft, scored twice and added an assist. Frank Vatrano (Boston Bruins) and Vinnie Hinostroza (Chicago Blackhawks) each registered a pair of helpers. The United States captured its first win of the tournament to even its record at 1-1 and rebound from Friday’s 5-1 loss to Canada. Devils defenseman David Warsofsky (14:47 TOI) and prospect Steven Santini (2 shots, 8:27 TOI) were paired together on the blue line.
