The US found themselves in a 3-0 hole less than a minute into the second period before responding with goals by Zach Parise and Patrick O'Sullivan . Derek Roy's goal three minutes into the third gave the Canadians a short lived 4-2 lead before back-t0-back power play goals from Dustin Brown and Jason Pominville allowed the Americans to equalize the game.
Heatley's goal was assisted by line-mates Ryan Getzlaf and Rick Nash giving the trio 22 points in three games. Healey leads all scorers with 6 goals and 4 assists.
The USA lost captain Jeff Halpern for the remainder of the tournament after he tore his ACL. The New York Rangers rookie Brandon Dubinsky will replace Halpern.
