BEIJING : A speedy United States raced past Canada 4-2 to win the battle of North American neighbours in men's ice hockey at the Beijing Winter Games on Saturday.

At the National Indoor Arena on Saturday, speed trumped size and experience as the U.S. spotted Canada a 1-0 lead then struck for three goals to take control and never let go.

But the U.S. speed would cause headaches for the Canadians all afternoon as the Americans struck for three straight goals, with Andy Miele scoring on their first shot flipping a nifty backhand over Eddie Pasquale.
