Charlie Coyle’s second period goal
helped Team USA win a bronze medal at the 2015 IIHF World Hockey Championship today.
Coyle’s goal came near the midway point
of the game, a game that saw the US defeat the host Czechs 3-0. The US had to
settle for today’s bronze medal game after losing to Russia in the semifinals.
The former Sea Dogs forward had a very
good tournament, registering three goals and two assists in five games. Coyle
joined the team after the Minnesota Wild were eliminated from the Stanley Cup
playoffs.
Sea Dogs draft pick Jack Eichel was also
part of the US squad, recording two goals and five assists in 10 games.
Tomas Jurco also participated in the
tournament, playing with Slovakia. He had one assist in five games.
In today’s gold medal match, Canada defeated
Russia 6-1.
