It's always interesting to watch some of the NHL's best players utilize the international-sized ice at the IIHF World Championships.
Instead of the standard 85 feet by 200 feet ice surfaces, the international rinks come in at 98.4 feet by 197 feet, allowing for more creativity and skillsets to flourish.
On the wider ice surface, players like James van Riemsdyk have more space to feather saucer passes, like the one he did to Dylan Larkin in U.S.A.'s game against Germany on Sunday.
JVR took a pass from Alex Martinez at his own blueline. After taking a few strides into the zone, the Flyers winger saw a streaking Dylan Larkin cutting hard to the net. van Riemsdyk then sauced one of the nicest feeds we've seen in a while, launching it over two German defenders sticks right onto Larkin's blade, who then roofed it right into the top part of the net for a gorgeous goal.
Just a filthy pass.
The goal went onto be the game-winner, before Jack Eichel added an insurance marker, as the Americans went onto win 3-1.
van Riemsdyk now has 2 goals and 3 assists in 6 games played, while Larkin has notched 3 goals and 2 assists in the same amount of games.
The Americans sit atop of Group A with 14 points and will take on Canada Tuesday.
