Matthew Tkachuk said that he wouldn't "want to miss" the finale vs. Canada and that he expects brother Brady to "be at his absolute best."

Matthew and Brady Tkachuk set the tone for Team USA in the opening game against Finland by scoring two goals apiece. The brothers set a tone against Canada in the second game by starting fights in the opening seconds.

At some point during the U.S. victory over Canada on Saturday night in Montreal, Tkachuk suffered an apparent injury. While he remained on the bench, Tkachuk took his last shift about eight minutes into the third period.
