U.S. Rolls Past Russia

Fifty-six seconds later, Lamoureux-Davidson added one of her own, making the score 3-0. The U.S. would add another, making it 4-0 after the second period.
They added three more in the third to tally an impressive seven goals in the victory. The U.S. outshot Russia 34-14 in the game.
