Surprisingly, no penalties were called for that move. Tkachuk must've been fuming inside, knowing he couldn't throw down because of those international rules against fighting, especially since he's the captain for Team USA. Most importantly, USA trails 1-0 and their medal hopes are on the line. The hosts with a Czech-laden crowd on their side have the early lead. <q> GOAL🚨: The Czechs get on the board and open the scoring for the game with a GOALL from Pavel Zacha! The home crowd is feeling the passion!!!! #MensWorlds</q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/tsn_sports/status/1793728496776175627'> </a></blockquote></div> <q> Pavel Zacha gets the crowd going on the PP!
