If the Faulk-captained Americans (1-1-0-3) down Hungary in regulation, they would then show eight points entering their final game against Austria Tuesday. (10:20 a.m., ET, NHL Network). If they then down Austria Tuesday in regulation, USA would finish with 11 points.
Presuming Latvia wins its final game against Hungary, the Latvians would finish with 12 points and finish third in the Group behind Switzerland and Finland. Presuming Moritz Seider 's Germany takes care of business against Great Britain, the Germans would finish with 10 points.
The Americans could finish ahead of Germany for the fourth and final quarterfinal berth with regulation wins in their final two games.
