Matthew Tkachuk scored twice in a three-point performance and his younger brother, Brady, added two goals during Team USA’s decisive 6-1 victory over Finland at the 4 Nations Face-Off on Thursday in Montreal.

Matt Boldy and Jake Guentzel both collected a goal and an assist for the United States. Zach Werenski notched three assists, Jack Eichel added two helpers and Connor Hellebuyck made 20 saves.

Henri Jokiharju produced the lone goal for Finland, which received a 26-stop performance from Juuse Saros.

Team USA will face Canada on Saturday, after Finland meets Sweden earlier in the day. Canada beat Sweden 4-3 in overtime in the tournament opener on Wednesday. The U.S. team sits in first place with three points following a regulation win, with Canada second on two points following its OT triumph.

After Finland and the United States traded first-period goals, Boldy gave the Americans their first lead with 2:56 remaining in the second period. Just as Finland was gaining momentum, Boldy won a board battle and promptly went to the net, where he deflected Brock Faber’s point shot into the net.

Team USA broke the game wide open with four goals in the third period. Matthew Tkachuk’s power-play goal 15 seconds into the final frame, a long shot that was redirected by a defender, extended the edge.

Guentzel added another goal 11 seconds later, finding the mark from the left faceoff dot on a rush created from the ensuing faceoff.

Brady Tkachuk netted his second of the game at the three-minute mark of the final frame, finishing a three-way passing play with his brother and Eichel on the rush.

Matthew Tkachuk notched his second of the game at 11:13 when he pounced on a rebound for another power-play marker.

From there, the clubs coasted to the final buzzer.

Finland opened the scoring when Jokiharju tallied off the rush at the 7:31 mark. Brady Tkachuk responded three minutes later when he grabbed a loose puck and banked a shot from behind the goal line off Saros and into the net.
