The  U.S. National Sled Hockey Team will close out the 2020 Series against Canada  today at 7 p.m. ET at the Woolwich Memorial Centre in Elmira, Ontario.

Game 1 Recap: USA 2, CAN 2

Brody Roybal (Northlake, Ill.) and Declan Farmer (Tampa, Fla.) scored third-period goals to help the U.S. National Sled Hockey Team rally for a 2-2 tie in the first of two games in the 2020 Series against Canada here today. Team USA goaltender Jen Lee (San Francisco, Calif.) finished with 16 saves. Both teams were up to the task in an exciting, but scoreless overtime period. Each team scored once in the three-round shootout -- with captain Josh Pauls (Green Brook, N.J.) tallying for the U.S. -- leaving the final a 2-2 tie. 

The Series

In its last 10 Series-specific games, the U.S. holds a record of 7-0-0-3-1 (W-OTW-OTL-L-T). All-time, the U.S. trails Canada, 13-4-5-26-1 (W-OTW-OTL-L-1) in 47 series-specific meetings. Since the 2014-15 season, the two teams have met 27 times, with the U.S. posting a 18-3-1-4-1 (W-OTW-OTL-L-T) record. 

A year ago, the two teams met in the gold-medal game of the 2019 Para Ice Hockey World Championship where Declan Farmer (Tampa, Fla.) scored with 3:26 to play in regulation to send the game into overtime. Brody Roybal (Northlake, Ill.) scored the game-winning goal 5:08 into overtime to give Team USA its eighth gold medal in World Championship history.
