U.S. beats Norway, 6-1; quiet day for locals.
Brian Rafalski scored twice, and Chris Drury, Patrick Kane, Phil Kessel and Ryan Malone scored once in a 6-1 win for Team USA over Norway at the Olympic men's ice hockey tournament.
The Ducks' Ryan Whitney and Bobby Ryan were kept off the scoreboard. Only an assist by the Kings' Jack Johnson (when Malone buried the rebound of his slap shot) gave Southern California a share of the victory.
Jonas Hiller and Team Switzerland take to the ice against Scott Niedermayer, Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Team Canada at 4:30 p.m. (CNBC)
